Book Overview
This is the first separate edition of Metamorphoses XI since that of G. A. T. Davies in 1907. While Davies' edition is incomplete (it omits certain lines) and his commentary is mainly concerned with philological matter, this new edition gives a complete text and the notes are designed to assist appreciation of Ovid's literary qualities. The introduction seeks to define Ovid's literary originality in the Metamorphoses and analyses his considerable influence upon English literature. The appendix provides an opportunity for comparative literary criticism. Book XI contains some of Ovid's best descriptive passages and offers the student an admirable introduction to the Metamorphoses.
