Ovid: The Classical Heritage, first published in 1995, contains a
diverse collection of reflections, ranging from the first century,
through the Middle Ages, to the twentieth, on a poet who has been
adored and reviled in equal measure. With the entire notion of
'Western culture' under duress, the need to establish continuity
from antiquity to modernity is as pressing as ever. Each essay,
selected by Professor Anderson, indicates an Ovidian theme or
perspective which remains relevant to our self-understanding today.
An enormous range of topics is investigated, in a variety of modes
and styles: contemporary reaction, reception by Medieval Schoolmen,
Ovid's influence on Chaucer, and his importance for the 'New
Mythologists'. Overall, Ovid: The Classical Heritage offers a rich
selection of essays, which cumulatively demonstrate the continuing
importance and fascination of this great Roman poet.
