Overview

Ovid’s magnificent panorama of the Greek and Roman myths-presented by a noted poet, scholar, and critic.Prized through the ages for its splendor and its savage, sophisticated wit, The Metamorphoses is a masterpiece of Western culture-the first attempt to link all the Greek myths, before and after Homer, in a cohesive whole, to the Roman myths of Ovid’s day. Horace Gregory, in this modern translation, turns his own poetic gifts toward a deft reconstruction of Ovid’s ancient themes, using contemporary idiom to bring to today’s reader all the ageless drama and psychological truths vividly intact.
