Ovid's deliciously clever & exuberant epic Metamorphoses is a verse translation from the Latin by David Raeburn with an introduction by Denis Feeney in Penguin Classics Ovid's sensuous & witty poetry brings together a dazzling array of mythological tales ingeniously linked by the idea of transformation
- often as a result of love or lust
- where men & women find themselves magically changed into new & sometimes extraordinary beings Beginning with the creation of the world & ending with the deification of Augustus Ovid interweaves many of the best-known myths & legends of Ancient Greece & Rome including Daedalus & Icarus Pyramus & Thisbe Pygmalion Perseus & Andromeda & the fall of Troy Erudite but light-hearted dramatic yet playful the Metamorphoses has influenced writers & artists throughout the centuries from Shakespeare & Titian to Picasso & Ted Hughes This lively accessible new translation by David Raeburn is in hexameter verse which brilliantly captures the energy & spontaneity of the original The edition contains an introduction discussing the life & work of Ovid as well as a preface to each book explanatory notes & an index of people gods & places Publius Ovidius Naso (43BC-18AD) was born at Sulmo (Sulmona) in central Italy Coming from a wealthy Roman family & seemingly destined for a career in politics he held some minor official posts before leaving public service to write becoming the most distinguished poet of his time His works all published in Penguin Classics include Amores a collection of short love poems; Heroides verse-letters written by mythological heroines to their lovers; Ars Amatoria a satirical handbook on love; & Metamorphoses his epic work on change If you enjoyed Metamorphoses you might like Homer's The Odyssey also available in Penguin Classics
