Description

In his "Metamorphoses", Ovid (43 BC-17 AD) draws on Greek mythology, Latin folklore and legend from even further afield to create a series of narrative poems, linked by the common theme of transformation. A chaotic universe is subdued into harmonious order, animals turn to stone, men and women become trees, stones and stars. Ovid's gentle vein of humour which runs through his work is exploited with subtlety, sympathy and self-irony.
