Introduction
Catullus was a two thousand-year-old poet as striking to the 20th century mind as he had been to his own era. His poems were lost for 1,000 years until their rediscovery reignited his reputation. He is considered a lyricist worthy of being mentioned along with Burns and Shelley. The History of Literature podcast is a member of the Podglamorit Network and Lit Hub radio.
