This volume contains a collection of works by the renowned Roman poet Ovid, including "Fasti", "Tristium Libri", "Ibis", "Epistulae Ex Ponto", "Halieutica", and various fragments. "Fasti" offers a poetic exploration of the Roman calendar and its associated festivals, providing valuable insights into Roman religious and cultural practices. "Tristium Libri" (Sorrows) comprises poems written during Ovid's exile, reflecting on his banishment and expressing his longing for Rome. "Epistulae Ex Ponto" continues this theme, consisting of letters from exile addressed to friends and acquaintances. "Ibis" is a vituperative poem filled with curses, while "Halieutica" delves into the world of fish and fishing.
This comprehensive collection, edited by Otto G thling, offers a valuable resource for students and scholars of Latin literature, providing a rich tapestry of Ovid's poetic genius and a window into the world of ancient Rome.
