Description
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.
The present volume offers a databank for the final six poems in the collection, the three pairs of letters from and to a hero and a heroine.
The material here presented is essential for understanding the way in which the text has been established.
It is arranged in the form of an enlarged critical apparatus so that the reader will have no difficulty in finding information relevant to an enquiry.
