Description
The Metamorphoses in Two Volumes is a collection of poetry by Ovid, exploring the transformative power of change. Written in a lively and graphic style, this work showcases Ovid's mastery of poetic language. Ovid's poetry was born from his experiences as a public servant and poet, which led to his exile on the Black Sea. Despite being separated from society, he continued to write, producing works such as the Amores, love poems, and the Fasti, a poetic treatment of the Roman year. The Metamorphoses remains one of his most enduring creations, inspiring artists and poets for centuries. This two-volume edition of Ovid's poetry is presented in the Loeb Classical Library format, offering a comprehensive collection of his surviving works.
