Ovid: Metamorphoses, Book XIII

Guidance is offered on points of language and style, and the Introduction treats in general terms the themes of metamorphosis and the structure of the poem as a whole.</p> <p>This new translation reproduces in modern idiom the graceful, fluent style of one of the great poets of classical antiquity. </p>
