Mcgowan.In response to being exiled to the Black Sea by the Roman emperor Augustus in 8 AD, Ovid began to compose the Tristia and Epistulae ex Ponto and to create for himself a place of intellectual refuge. From there he was able to reflect out loud on how and why his own art had been legally banned and left for dead on the margins of the empire. As the last of the Augustan poets, Ovid was in a unique position to take stock of his own standing and of the place of poetry itself in a culture deeply restructured during the lengthy rule of Rome's first emperor. This study considers exile in the Tristia and Epistulae ex Ponto as a place of genuine suffering and a metaphor for poetry's marginalization from the imperial city. It analyzes, in particular, Ovid's representation of himself and the emperor Augustus against the background of Roman religion, law, and poetry.Mnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.Supplementum.Monographs on Greek and Roman language and literature.Mnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.Supplementum ;309.ExilesRomeBiographyExile (Punishment) in literatureExiles in literaturePoets, LatinBiographyConstanța (Romania)In literatureElectronic books.ExilesExile (Punishment) in literature.Exiles in literature.Poets, Latin871/.01McGowan Matthew M985663MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455444303321Ovid in exile2252982UNINA
