Description

Explore the historical and fictionalized reception of Ovid's poetry within the literature of Tudor England. This academic study, part of the Material Readings in Early Modern Culture series, examines how Ovidian narratives influenced the vernacular imaginations of the late medieval and Renaissance eras. The text focuses on the protean heroines found in the Heroides and Metamorphoses. It tracks how these classical figures were replicated and expanded upon by influential English authors. Readers can trace the impact of Ovidian themes through the works of Geoffrey Chaucer, John Gower, Isabella Whitney, William Shakespeare, and Michael Drayton. This book provides a deep look at how classical poetry shaped the literary landscape of England. It is an essential resource for scholars studying the intersection of classical mythology and early modern English literature.
