Note 13 — INTRODUCTION

Reading edition

Horace Ars Poetica 40,

cui lecta potenter erit res, nec facundia deseret hunc nec lucidus ordo.

Can the obscure potenter here be a Latin translation of some such technical term (found by Horace or Neoptolemus in the Greek writers on literary criticism) as δυνατῶς or δεινῶς or πιθανῶς?

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
