Synopsis
Excerpt from Selections From Ovid: Edited, With Introduction, Notes and Vocabularies
This book is intended for forms that have made some progress in translation from Latin prose and is designed to introduce them by easy steps to Latin poetry. The earlier portions have therefore been greatly simplified, but as the boys advance they will gradually meet harder constructions and longer selections.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces readers to Latin poetry through a selection of works by the Roman poet Ovid, focusing on passages from his Metamorphoses, Fasti, and Heroides. The Metamorphoses, a mythological epic, tells the story of the world from its creation to the time of Julius Caesar, and is renowned for its vivid descriptions and exploration of themes such as transformation, love, and loss. The Fasti, a poetic calendar, provides insights into Roman customs, festivals, and religious practices, offering a glimpse into the daily life and beliefs of the ancient Romans. The Heroides, a collection of imaginary letters written by mythological heroines to their absent lovers, explores themes of love, longing, and abandonment. Through these selections, the author aims to introduce readers to the rich tapestry of Ovid's poetic world, his skill in storytelling, and his profound understanding of human nature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
