Description

Ovidian Bibliofictions and the Tudor Book explores how Ovid's classical poetry shaped English literature during the late medieval and Renaissance periods. This scholarly work traces the reception and transformation of Ovidian narratives, particularly those featuring the protean heroines of the Heroides and Metamorphoses, through the hands of major English authors. From Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower to William Shakespeare and Michael Drayton, English writers drew inspiration from Ovid's verse to create vernacular works that reimagined classical themes. This Material Readings in Early Modern Culture volume examines how Tudor England's literary culture engaged with Roman classical traditions, revealing the intricate connections between Ovid's original texts and their English adaptations. Ideal for scholars, students, and historians of Renaissance literature, this book provides essential insights into the bibliographic and textual history of early modern England.
