paperback. The elegant verse and subtle observation of the Amores, The Art of Love, and The Cures of Love made their author the talk of Rome. Ovid saw love as a game at which both sexes could play without getting hurt - as long as they stuck to his rules, but primarily he wrote these sparkling and often erotic poems to entertain, and after two thousand years they still give enormous pleasure. Translator(s): Melville, A. D. Series: Oxford World's Classics. Num Pages: 304 pages. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 195 x 129 x 18. Weight in Grams: 224.
