Book synopsis

This book aims to offer a new approach to the vexata quaestio of "the elegiac" in Ovid's Metamorphoses. Through a challenging re-contextualization of some well-known passages, the author focuses on the poetological meaning of elegiac power play and its integration within Ovid's poem on changing forms. This twofold analysis grants the reader a thought-provoking insight into Ovid's poetics of generic assimilation.
