Beschreibung
Ovid's masterpiece, "Metamorphoses," is a poem that portrays the transformation of people into animals, rivers, and stones. The narrative focuses on the moment of the metamorphoses rather than the life of the transformations. Written in Latin and translated by Bocage, it is a continuous poem with abrupt transitions across its fifteen books. "Metamorphoses" is a fascinating literary work of great historical and cultural significance. Through Ovid's work, we can learn much about Greco-Roman mythology and human nature in general. It is a work that continues to captivate readers of all ages and has left a lasting legacy in world literature.
