Love poems, Letters, and Remedies of Ovid

Poetry

Ovid

Authors: Ovid
Print type: BOOK

Description:

Widely praised for his translations of Boethius and Ariosto, esteemed translator David R. Slavitt here returns to Ovid, once again bringing to the contemporary ear the spirited, idiomatic, audacious charms of this master poet. The love here described is of the anguished, ruinous kind, like a sickness, and Ovid prescribes cures.
