In this dissertation we propose to present an analysis of the work of the Roman poet Horace (65-8 BC), in order to analyze the representations of the Roman Emperor Augustus and his domus in his book IV of the Odes and the Carmen Saeculare poem. Our hypothesis is that Horatio approximates the Emperor through the relationships of patronage, by the friendship of patrons and, thereby, the speech that the poet constructs about the Prince reflects the obligations of a client to their patron. In this sense, we have divided our dissertation in three chapters: in the first, we will present the life of Horace, the political dimension of his work and the importance of the rhetoric and the memory for the construction of his laudatory speech; in the second, we will show the rise of Augustus in the Roman political life and the gradual process of building his authority over the years, the amicitia and patronage relationships established with Maecenas and Augustus; in addition, the importance of recitatio and books for dissemination and circulation of his works among the readers and listeners; in our third chapter will present, in fact, the images of the Emperor Augustus in the poems of Horace, by analyzing the importance of the construction of the speech on its domus Augusta, the idea of rescue of the virtues of ancestors and, finally, the promise of a lasting peace and prosperity. For this purpose, we use the concepts of speech, memory, representation and power in the construction of the text. Thus, we will make a reading of the poems of Horace as a speech that maintains a close relationship with his political and social context, because he writes his verses on the idea that his work would be a monument that would bequeath to the future generations the memories of the Emperor and its deeds for Rome and the Romans.
