Poetry

Hardback. Widely praised for his translations of Boethius and Ariosto, esteemed translator David R. Slavitt here returns to Ovid, once again bringing to the contemporary ear the spirited, idiomatic, audacious charms of this master poet.

Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 217 x 149 x 29. Weight in Grams: 596.

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.
