One of the founding texts of Western literature, the Metamorphoses is nevertheless anything but earnest or off-putting. Ovids sequence of fifteen witty and playful poems sketches the history of the world from its creation to the poets own time through a series of transformation myths in which gods and goddesses succumb to all-too-human passions, not least in the matter of love. Frequently translated, imitated and paraphrased.
