Metamorphoses

See all formats and editions

Ovid's epic poem-whose theme of change has resonated throughout the ages-is one of the most important texts of Western imagination.

Charles Martin combines a close fidelity to Ovid's text with verse that catches the speed and liveliness of the original.

Martin's Metamorphoses will be the translation of choice for contemporary readers in English.

The text is accompanied by an introduction by Bernard Knox, endnotes and a glossary of people, places and personification.
