Metamorphosis
Ovid
ISBN: 9780140440584
(PB - EN)

In his Metamorphoses, Ovid 43 BC17 AD draws on Greek mythology, Latin folklore and legend from even further afield to create a series of narrative poems, linked by the common theme of transformation. A chaotic universe is subdued into harmonious order, animals turn to stone, men and women become trees, stones and stars. Ovids gentle vein of humour which runs through his work is exploited with subtlety, sympathy and selfirony.
