Description

Explore the profound literary legacy of Ovid through this scholarly examination of the Heroides. Part of the prestigious Princeton Legacy Library, this work offers a deep look into the collection of elegiac letters written by legendary heroines such as Penelope, Dido, and Medea to their lovers. In this volume, Professor Howard Jacobson provides a detailed critical evaluation of the first fifteen letters. He examines the unique dual nature of Ovid's work, treating it both as a unified poetic entity with a coherent structure and as a collection of individual poems. This study is essential for readers interested in how Ovid revitalized myth as a primary subject for literature. Through a thorough analysis, Jacobson helps readers understand the complex goals and poetic structures that define these classic letters.
