Ovid's Amores, written in the first century BC, is arguably the best-known and most popular collection in this tradition. Born in 43 BC, Ovid was educated in Rome in preparation for a career in public services before finding his calling as a poet. He may have begun writing his Amores as early as 25 BC. Although influenced by poets such as Catullus, Ovid demonstrates a much greater awareness of the funny side of love than any of his predecessors. The Amores is a collection of romantic poems centered on the poet's own complicated love life: he is involved with a woman, Corinna, who is sometimes unobtainable, sometimes compliant, and often difficult and domineering. Whether as a literary trope, or perhaps merely as a human response to the problems of love in the real world, the principal focus of these poems is the poet himself, and his failures, foolishness, and delusions. By the time he was in his forties, Ovid was Rome's most important living poet; his Metamorphoses, a kaleidoscopic epic poem about love and hatred among the gods and mortals, is one of the most admired and influential books of all time. In AD 8, Ovid was exiled by Augustus to Romania, for reasons that remain obscure. He died there in AD 17. The Amores were originally published in five books, but reissued around 1 AD in their current three-book form. This edition of the first book of the collection contains the complete Latin text of Book 1, along with commentary, notes and full vocabulary. Both entertaining and thought-provoking, this book will provide an invaluable aid to students of Latin and general readers alike. This book contain embedded audio files of the original text read aloud by Aleksandra Szypowska." -- publisher's website. 410 0$aClassics textbooks ;$v6. 517 1 $aAmores (Book one) 606 $aLove poetry, Latin$vTranslations into English 606 $aErotic poetry, Latin$vTranslations into English 610 $arome 610 $acommentary 610 $aerotic poetry 610 $aamores 610 $avocabulary 610 $aovid 610 $alatin literature 610 $anotes 610 $aAccusative case 610 $aCupid 610 $aDative case 610 $aDipsas 610 $aSubjunctive mood 610 $aVenus 615 0$aLove poetry, Latin 615 0$aErotic poetry, Latin 676 $a871.01 700 $aTurpin$b William$f1952-$0989501 702 $aHuelsenbeck$b Bart 702 $aMulligan$b Bret 702 $aFrancese$b Christopher 702 $aMiller$b Joanne 712 02$aOpen Book Publishers, 801 0$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910137000203321 996 $aOvid, Amores (Book 1)$92263214 997 $aUNINA
