Ovid's epic poem whose theme of change has resonated throughout the
ages is one of the most important texts of Western imagination, an
inspiration from Dante's times to the present day, when writers
such as Salman Rushdie and Italo Calvino have found a living source
in Ovid's work. Charles Martin combines a close fidelity to Ovid's
text with verse that catches the speed and liveliness of the
original. Martin's Metamorphoses will be the translation of choice
for contemporary readers in English. This volume also includes
endnotes and a glossary of people, places, and personifications."
