Ovid: Metamorphoses Books V-VIII

Ovid’s Metamorphoses is a work which displays his mature genius and is a treasure house of mythology. This volume continues the Metamorphoses in the same style as books IIV; with a line by line translation and notes which trace Ovid’s sources and his influence on literature and art. It has, however, been designed to stand alone or to be read as a sequel to the earlier volume.
