Ovid's Metamorphoses: Oxford Approaches to Classical Literature

Autor Elaine Fantham
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 iul 2004
Ovid's Metamorphoses have been seen to mark the culmination of the classical epic tradition, and a revolutionary transferral of narrative interest from warfare to love and fantasy. This introduction considers how Ovid defined and shaped his narrative, its cultural context, and its vivid depictions of the cruelty of jealous gods, the pathos of human love, and the imaginative fantasy of flight, monsters, magic, and illusion. Elaine Fantham provides a stimulating introduction to this marvelous and complex poem, and to the traditions it drew on and inspired.

Recenzii

A beautifully written, undogmatic, and thoroughly sound introduction to the Metamorphoses.... This is a book that can be heartily recommended to students and colleagues in other fields who want a sympathetic guide and sharp-eyed observer of Ovid's strengths to help them enjoy every bit of the work.
