Book Heroides

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ovid
  • Publisher : Penguin UK
  • Release : 2004-11-25
  • ISBN : 0141913096
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Heroides written by Ovid and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-11-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twenty-one poems of the Heroides, Ovid gave voice to the heroines and heroes of epic and myth. These deeply moving literary epistles reveal the happiness and torment of love, as the writers tell of their pain at separation, forgiveness of infidelity or anger at betrayal. The faithful Penelope wonders at the suspiciously long absence of Ulysses, while Dido bitterly reproaches Aeneas for too eagerly leaving her bed to follow his destiny, and Sappho - the only historical figure portrayed here - describes her passion for the cruelly rejecting Phaon. In the poetic letters between Paris and Helen the lovers seem oblivious to the tragedy prophesied for them, while in another exchange the youthful Leander asserts his foolhardy eagerness to risk his life to be with his beloved Hero.

  • Author : J. B. Hall
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2023-09-08
  • ISBN : 1527529991
  • Pages : 322 pages

Download or read book P Ovidius Naso The Heroides written by J. B. Hall and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-08 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Heroides, or Letters of Heroines, is a collection of twenty-one fictional letters composed by the famous Augustan poet Ovid (43 BC-AD 17/18). It is a widely read work of elegiac poetry which is of special interest to students of gender literature. The poems, which take the form of fifteen letters from heroines to their absent lovers and three pairs of letters to a lover with a reply, have frequently been edited and translated into English in both prose and verse. This volume presents a radically new text and translation of the whole collection. The text separates what we regard as the original core of the poem from what we take to be additional accretions to it. The translation is designed to facilitate an understanding of the original as an aid to interpretation. All students of Latin poetry are included in the intended readership.

Book Ovid s Heroidos

  • Author : Howard Jacobson
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2015-03-08
  • ISBN : 1400872391
  • Pages : 453 pages

Download or read book Ovid s Heroidos written by Howard Jacobson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of letters purportedly written by Penelope, Dido, Medea, and other heroines to their lovers, the Heroides represents Ovid's initial attempt to revitalize myth as a subject for literature. In this book, Howard Jacobson examines the first fifteen elegaic letters of the Heroides. In his critical evaluation, Professor Jacobson takes into consideration the twofold nature of the work: its existence as a single entity with uniform poetic structure and coherent goals, and its existence as a collection of fifteen individual poems. Thus, fifteen chapters are devoted to a thorough analysis and interpretation of the particular poems, while six additional chapters are concerned with problems that pertain to the work as a whole, such as the nature of the genre, the role of rhetoric, theme, and variation, and the originality of Ovid. Special attention is given to the application of modern psychological criticism to the delineations of the pathological psyche in the letters. In an additional chapter on the chronology of Ovid's early amatory poetry, the author challenges and revises the traditional dating of the Heroides. Originally published in 1974.

Book Ovid s Early Poetry

    Book Details:
  • Author : Thea S. Thorsen
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2014-12-11
  • ISBN : 1316165124
  • Pages : 237 pages

Download or read book Ovid s Early Poetry written by Thea S. Thorsen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ovid is one of the greatest poets in the Classical tradition and Western literature. This book represents the most comprehensive study to date of his early output as a unified literary production. Firstly, the book proposes new ways of organising this part of Ovid's poetic career, the chronology of which is notoriously difficult to establish. Next, by combining textual criticism with issues relating to manuscript transmission, the book decisively counters arguments levelled against the authenticity of Heroides 15, which consequently allows for a revaluation of Ovid's early output. Furthermore, by focusing on the literary device of allusion, the book stresses the importance of Ovid's single Heroides 1-15 in relationship with his Amores I-III, Ars amatoria I-III and Remedia amoris. Finally, the book identifies three kinds of Ovidian poetics that are found in his early poetry and that point towards the works of myth and exile that followed in his later career.

Book Incerti auctoris Epistula Sapphus ad Phaonem

Download or read book Incerti auctoris Epistula Sapphus ad Phaonem written by Ovid and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ovid's Heroides, a collection of twenty-one epistles in elegiac verse, consists of two groups, the first comprising fourteen poems addressed by heroines of mythology to their absent lovers or husbands. In this edition, Professor Knox offers a commentary on seven of these epistles, addressing problems of language and style, and focusing on the relationship of the Heroides to the classic works of Greek and Roman literature on which Ovid bases his representation of these women. In addition, he has included a commentary on the Epistula Sapphus, a separate poem of doubtful authorship which was composed in the manner of Ovid and is believed by many to be by him. The Introduction provides an account of the genre, a survey of language, style and metre, and an outline of the problems concerning the authenticity of parts of the collection.

Book Intratextuality and Latin Literature

Download or read book Intratextuality and Latin Literature written by Stephen Harrison and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have witnessed an increased interest in classical studies in the ways meaning is generated through the medium of intertextuality, namely how different texts of the same or different authors communicate and interact with each other. Attention (although on a lesser scale) has also been paid to the manner in which meaning is produced through interaction between various parts of the same text or body of texts within the overall production of a single author, namely intratextuality. Taking off from the seminal volume on Intratextuality: Greek and Roman Textual Relations, edited by A. Sharrock / H. Morales (Oxford 2000), which largely sets the theoretical framework for such internal associations within classical texts, this collective volume brings together twenty-seven contributions, written by an international team of experts, exploring the evolution of intratextuality from Late Republic to Late Antiquity across a wide range of authors, genres and historical periods. Of particular interest are also the combined instances of intra- and intertextual poetics as well as the way in which intratextuality in Latin literature draws on reading practices and critical methods already theorized and operative in Greek antiquity.
