Augustan poetry
From Academic Kids
Augustan poetry is the poetry that flourished during the reign of Caesar Augustus as Emperor of Rome, most notably including the works of Virgil, Horace, and Ovid.
The phrase is also used to refer to the English poetry of the 17th and 18th century neoclassical period; Augustan writers in this latter sense (whose artistic inspiration might be traced to the reign of Augustus) include John Dryden, Jonathan Swift, Alexander Pope, and Samuel Johnson.
