Ovid From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Ovid Ovid as imagined in the Nuremberg Chronicle Born March 20 43 BC Sulmo Died 17 AD Tomis Occupation Poet Influenced Dante Alighieri Geoffrey Chaucer John Milton William Shakespeare For other uses, see Ovid (disambiguation) Publius Ovidius Naso March 20 43 BC – 17 AD) was a Roman poet known to the English -speaking world as Ovid who wrote on many topics, including love, abandoned women and mythological transformations. Ranked alongside Virgil and Horace as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature , Ovid was generally considered a great master of the elegiac couplet . His poetry, much imitated during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages , had a decisive influence on European art and literature for centuries. Ovid made use of a wide range of meters: elegiac couplets in the Amores and in his two long didactic poems, the Ars Amatoria and Remedia Amoris ; the two fragments of the lost tragedy Medea are in iambic trimeter and anapests , respectively; the Metamorphoses was written in dactylic hexameter . (Dactylic hexameter is the meter of Virgil 's Aeneid and of Homer 's epics.)

An introduction and commentary with discussion of myths and links to sources and influences in art and literature Larry A. Brown, Nashville, TN Introduction: Ovid's influence on Western art and literature cannot be exaggerated. The Metamorphoses is our best classical source of 250 myths. "The poem is the most comprehensive, creative mythological work that has come down to us from antiquity" (Galinsky). Based on its influence, "European literature and art would be poorer for the loss of the Metamorphoses than for the loss of Homer" (Hadas). Ovid was a major inspiration for Dante, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton (see bibliography on last page). If Virgil is Rome's greatest poet, Ovid is the most popular (even in his own time; Ovidian graffiti has been found on the walls of Pompeii). As one example of Ovid's influence on Western art and literature, read the famous story of Daedalus and Icarus in Book 8. Ovid's account is the earliest in extant literature, although the story is much older, found on 6th century vases. Christopher Marlowe alludes to this story in his tragedy of Dr. Faustus

home roman poets Ovid The Roman Poet Ovid Tristia and Letters from Pontus ) have no other topic than the poet's sorrows, his exquisite taste and fruitful invention have redeemed them from the charge of being tedious, and they are read with pleasure and even with sympathy. The two great works of Ovid are his Metamorphoses and his Fasti . They are both mythological poems, and from the former we [note - "we" here means Bulfinch] have taken most of our stories of Greek and Roman mythology. A late writer thus characterizes these poems: "The rich mythology of Greece furnished Ovid, as it may still furnish the poet, the painter, and the sculptor, with materials for his art. With exquisite taste, simplicity, and pathos he has narrated the fabulous traditions of early ages, and given to them that appearance of reality which only a master hand could impart. His pictures of nature are striking and true; he selects with care that which is appropriate; he rejects the superfluous; and when he has completed his work, it is neither defective nor redundant. The Metamorphoses are read with pleasure by youth, and are re-read in more advanced age with still greater delight. The poet ventured to predict that his poem would survive him, and be read wherever the Roman name was known."

P ublius Ovidius Naso (Ovid, 43 B.C.- 17 A.D.?) was born into an aristocratic family and educated in law and rhetoric in Rome. Ovid found his true calling however in poetry, and following the completion of his education in Athens, he settled in Rome. His first love poems, Amores , brought him instant celebrity and his subsequent work The Art of Love marked him as the chief of erotic poets. H is publication of The Art of Love was however, ill-timed as it followed closely the banishment of Augustus' daughter Julia for profligacy despite her father's attempts at moral reforms. Ovid was soon exiled from the city under two charges one for his poem, and the other for not revealing evidence relating to the royal family. Ovid maintained his property but left Rome in 8 A.D. for Tomis, a frontier fortress. He died in exile in approximately 17 A.D. O vid's fame as a poet came not from his lofty poetical achievements, but from his keen ability to interpret his age through poetry designed to amuse and cheer the cultured society of Rome. His success was due to his vivacity, sparkling wit, and creative imagination. His texts have remained popular because of their studied movement, grace, and music, which appeal to readers and writers with an ear for technique. The Bible Homer Aristophanes Virgil ...

PLACES: Ovid FAQ The Ovid Project Ovid Illustrated Recent Ovidian Bibliography WORKS: Metamorphoses Ovid's poetry falls into three divisions: the works of his youth, of his middle age, and of his years in exile. In the first period, Ovid continued the elegiac tradition of Roman poets Sextus Propertius and Albius Tibullus, both of whom he knew and admired. Ovid's Amores are erotic poems centered on Corinna, but they display little real feeling and are characterized by artificiality and cleverness. Other works of his are didactic poems, including Medicamina Faciei Femineae , a fragment of writing on cosmetics; and Remedia Amoris , a kind of recantation of the Ars Amatoria . Ovid's Medea , a tragedy highly praised by ancient critics, has not been preserved. His interest in mythology is reflected in his Heroides , or Epistulae Heroidum , 21 fictional love letters, mostly from mythological heroines to their lovers.

The Ovid Project: Metamorphosing the Metamorphoses Hope Greenberg, Humanities Computing Specialist, University of Vermont The importance of such classical authors as Ovid to the art, music, and literature of western civilization is legendary, yet many are not familiar with the original works that have provided this inspiration. The University of Vermont's rare book department contains an extensive collection of illustrated works of Ovid. Included are several editions of engravings by the 17th century German artist, Johann Wilhelm Bauer, depicting 150 scenes from the Metamorphoses. Each scene has a brief description in both Latin and German. Some plates from a 1640 edition of the translation done by George Sandys are also available.

Ovid was the first major writer to grow up under the empire. He died far from home, in a desolate town by the Black Sea. During the Middle Ages and Renaissance, Ovidian stories were highly popular among artists, poets and in courts. In England the Metamorphoses was one of Chaucer's favorite books. I'm sorry for any fool who rates sleep a prime blessing And enjoys it from dusk till dawn Night in, night out. What's sleep but cold death's reflection? (from 'Elegy 9b' trans. by Peter Green) Publius Ovidius Naso was a member of the Roman knightly class. Ovid came from Sulmo in the territory of the Paeligni. His last name meant a 'nose', perhaps after some ancestor who had a big nose. Ovid's parents had destined him for a career in law. He studied rhetoric under Aurelius Fuscus and Porcius Latro and his education was completed in Athens, where he decided to become a poet, and rich and famous. With the poet Macer, Ovid travelled in Asia Minor and Sicily. In Rome he started to practise law as one of the judges who tried testamentary and sometimes criminal cases. Legal phraseology is seen later in his writing. Soon he decided that public life did not suit him. Ovid retired to devote himself entirely to writing. He was married three times; his only daughter was probably his second wife.
