Download or read book Orphic Voice s A Narratological Commentary on Ovid s Metamorphoses 10 1 11 84 written by Julian Wagner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers an in-depth narratological analysis of the 'Book of Orpheus' (10.1-11.84) of Ovid's Metamorphoses. Starting from fundamental aspects of narrative like time, space, and focalisation, the commentary highlights the polyphony of the various narrative levels. The complex and challenging design results from a constant oscillation between the narrator-persona of Ovid and the programmatic Orpheus-figure which has found a wealth of interpretations. In addition, the study places the 10th book in the overall narrative framework of Ovid's Metamorphoses with its density of intertextuality and metanarrativity.

Cole created a number of other films as well. In all of his work, there is an emphasis on religion, spirituality, and moral meaning.
