Description

The Love Books of Ovid is a compilation of four works by the ancient Roman poet Publius Ovidius Naso, commonly known as Ovid. The book includes his famous love poems, Amores, which explore the themes of love, desire, and seduction. The Ars Amatoria, also known as The Art of Love, is a didactic poem that provides advice on the art of seduction for both men and women. The Remedia Amoris, or The Cure for Love, is a satirical work that offers remedies for those suffering from the pains of love. Finally, the Medicamina Faciei Femineae, or The Art of Beauty, is a poem on the topic of cosmetics and beauty treatments for women. This book is a classic work of literature that showcases Ovid's mastery of poetry and his insights into the complexities of human relationships.This is a new release of the original 1930 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
