- Synopsis
- Stories of passion, death, and transformation. From the introduction: "the great collection, the definitive compendium of ancient mythology, which is known to us as the Metamorphoses, or the Stories of Changing Forms. The work on which Ovid's reputation was founded shows a great deal of the spirit of the Restoration; unhappily for this happy man, there was in Augustus a great deal of the spirit of Cromwell. And from the official point of view, Ovid must often have seemed mischievous, if not downright subversive."
