[320- 455] heyday of the Gupta Empire in North India. Classic phase in art. First stone temples, in a style akin to that of the Greek "cella". Art frees itself from Hellenistic influences to become properly Indian. Literature is developing considerably (drama, poetry). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gup…

What are some of the most noticeable differences between Classical Latin prose and poetry?

This semester I am in a third year Latin course on Latin prose, in which we have been reading excerpts from Caesar’s de Bello Gallico and Livy’s ab Urbe Condita. Next semester I’ll be in a class on Latin poetry.

I don’t know what we will be reading yet, but I am curious about what you all think will be the most noticeable differences between reading Latin prose and poetry.

My dear friend is into classic poetry, literature, art - and overall is just way more cultured than me. Please help.

I feel like I'm intimately aware of all of my friend's interests, but I just can't find a gift that would suit. He's very dear to me and I want to get him something he can truly appreciate. He lives half the world away.

He adores poetry, classic literature and has recently gotten into playing mandolin again.

Poets like Christopher Marlowe and Shakespeare are his favourite - although he's recently estranged himself from the later after reading a lot of historical documentation that painted him as far less than his status would suggest. But I think he likes that kind of writing anyway.

He's homosexual and finds comfort in classic poets or authors that are too. He got really into Marlowe's life and history.

He bought a mandolin recently. He likes writing too - he wrote me a sonnet once (can you tell I'm desperately trying to live up to his sentimentality), but I think he enjoys painting most. Works with acrylics.

He's had an awful year and I want to find him something that shows him how much I listen and care, but he's so much more cultured than me and I don't know where to start. Thanks for any help.
