Ovid: Metamorphoses [2005] paperback Cheap

Description
Ovid s epic poem-whose theme of change has resonated throughout the ages-is one of the most important texts of Western imagination, an inspiration from Dante s times to the present day, when writers such as Salman Rushdie and Italo Calvino have found a living source in Ovid s work. Charles Martin combines a close fidelity to Ovid s text with verse that catches the speed and liveliness of the original. Martin s Metamorphoses will be the translation of choice for contemporary readers in English. This volume also includes endnotes and a glossary of people, places, and personifications.
