Shifting between the search for and loss of identity, this bilingual edition, illustrated with the famous engravings of Pablo Picasso, invites readers to rediscover Ovid in what is arguably the best prose translation. An afterword contextualizes the Metamorphoses and highlights their art historical reception. Languages: German, Latin.
