A companion to one of the greatest writers of classical antiquity, and arguably the single most influential ancient poet for post-classical literature and culture, is long overdue. Chapters by leading authorities discuss the backgrounds and contexts for Ovid, the individual works, and his influence on later literature and art. Coverage of essential information is combined with exciting new critical approaches.


Review

“…this volume, packed with information and creative criticism, constitutes a basic necessity for any college library and for various courses on the Ovidian tradition.”
Religious Studies Review

“…a well-edited and carefully planned work that few Ovidian shelves will want to be without. I recommend it without reservation.”

The Classical Outlook

“Along with a handy dateline on Ovid’s life and works and a brief biography of contributors, a robust 28-page bibliography rounds out this eminently useful volume, which should be on the reference shelf of every library supporting work by Latinists, medievalists, and Renaissance scholars interested in the consummate Roman poet. Highly recommended.”

Choice

“The new companion succeeds admirably by surveying the entire range of Ovid criticism at the level of theme, genre, narratology, key aspects of cultural studies, and reception….a collection that both beginners and old hands will find informative and stumulating, and I can recommend it with enthusiasm to readers of both kinds.”
