Ovid in China offers a fresh look at an ancient Roman author in a
Chinese context and often from a Chinese perspective. The seventeen
essays in this volume, by a group of international scholars,
examine Ovid's interaction with China in a broad historical
context, including the arrival of Christian missionaries in 1294,
the depiction of Ovidian scenes on 18th-century Chinese porcelain,
the growing Chinese interest in Ovid in the early 20th century, a
21st-century collaborative project to translate Ovid's poetry into
Chinese with commentary, and comparative studies on such themes as
conceptualization of time, consolation, laughter, filicide, and
revenge.
