Ovid’s poetical career reached its climax in his masterpiece, the Metamorphoses. The work displays his mature genius and has become a standard treasure-house of mythology for all succeeding generations. The complete work has been edited for this series by Donald Hill. Each volume includes the Latin text with a line by line parallel prose translation, and notes which trace Ovid’s sources and his influence on literature and art.
