Ovid was the most influential and widely imitated of all classical
Latin poets. This volume publishes papers delivered at a conference
on the Reception of Ovid in March 2013, jointly organised by the
Institute of Classical Studies and the Warburg Institute,
University of London. It presents studies of the impact of Ovid's
work on Renaissance commentators, on neo-Latin poetry and
epistolography, on Renaissance engravers, on poets like Dante,
Mantuan, Pontano, Ariosto, Tasso, Spenser, Lodge, Weever, Milton
and Cowley and on artists including Correggio and Rubens. The main
focus of the volume is inevitably the afterlife of the
Metamorphoses but it also includes discussions of the impact of
Heroides, Fasti, and Ibis, and publishes for the first time a Latin
verse life of Ovid composed around 1460 by Bernardo Moretti.
Contributors are Helene Casanova-Robin, Frank T. Coulson, Fatima
Diez-Plazas, Ingo Gildenhard, Philip Hardie, Maggie Kilgour, Gesine
Manuwald, Elizabeth McGrath, John Miller, Victoria Moul, Caroline
Stark, and Herica Valladares.
