Classical scholar Robinson Ellis (1834-1913) studied at Balliol
College, Oxford, under Benjamin Jowett, before becoming a Fellow of
Trinity and, in 1893, Corpus Professor of Latin. His 1876
Commentary on Catullus (also reissued in this series) publicised
the Codex Oxoniensis but overlooked its significance and was
criticised by other scholars in the field. Nevertheless, his
commentaries became standard texts, including this 1881 publication
of Ovid's Ibis. A vitriolic invective poem, written in exile, aimed
at an enemy whose identity remains unclear, and invoking
Callimachus' lost poem of the same name, it is probably Ovid's
least-known work. This edition, including text, scholia, and
Ellis's prolegomena and critical apparatus, illuminates
nineteenth-century traditions of classical scholarship.
