The Heroides is a collection of letters written by Ovid, a Roman poet, in which he imagines the voices of legendary heroines from Greek and Roman mythology. These epistles are addressed to their absent lovers, and they express a range of emotions, from passion and longing to anger and despair. The Amours is a series of poems that explore the joys and sorrows of love, while the Art of Love and Remedy of Love offer advice on how to find and maintain a successful relationship. This edition of Ovid's works also includes several minor works, such as the Cures for Love and the Medicamina Faciei Femineae, which provide tips for women on how to enhance their beauty. Published in 1893, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient mythology and the complexities of human relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
