 Despite its naivety, the schematism involved an appreciation of Horace's works as a collection, the "Ars Poetica", "Satires" and "Epistles" appearing to find favour as well as the "Odes".The later Middle Ages however gave special significance to "Satires" and "Epistles", being considered Horace's mature works.Dante referred to Horace as "Orazio satiro", and he awarded him a privileged position in the first circle of Hell, with Homer, Ovid and Lucan.
