Description

Ovid's Heroides: A Selection by Christina Tsaknaki is an OCR-endorsed publication for Latin A-Level study. This collection presents full Latin text, commentary and vocabulary for two key sections of Ovid's Heroides: lines 1-68 of Heroides I and lines 1-140 of Heroides VII. The book also includes a detailed introduction that covers the prescribed English texts to be read alongside these Latin passages. Ovid's Heroides is a unique collection of poetry, featuring famous mythological heroines who write letters to men who have abandoned them. This fresh perspective on classical mythology offers a new angle on epic heroes and invites readers to consider alternative viewpoints on loyalty in love. The book provides resources for further study on the Companion Website. For students studying Latin A-Level, this publication is an essential resource for exploring Ovid's Heroides.
