Tristia, Book 1 is a collection of poems written by the ancient Roman poet Ovid during his exile in Tomis, a city on the Black Sea, in 8 AD. The poems are addressed to various friends, patrons, and family members, expressing his sadness and longing for his home in Rome. The book includes an introduction and notes by the translator, which provide historical and cultural context for the poems.

The poems offer a glimpse into the mind of a great poet in a time of personal struggle and political turmoil.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
