Lustrum Band 62 – 2020

The research report on Ovid’s Metamorphoses, written in English, was prepared by a research team from the University of Huelva led by Antonio Ramirez de Verger and Luis Rivero Garcia and critically reviews the almost unmanageable literature on what is probably the most widely read and most researched work of Roman poetry at present. The first of two parts focuses on works on the history of transmission and textual criticism of the metamorphoses, as well as works on aspects of the work that have been particularly intensively researched in recent decades: i.a. Generic issues, religion, cult and magic, love, sexuality and gender.
