Preview — The Metamorphoses of Ovid by Allen Mandelbaum

Through Mandelbaum's poetic artistry, this gloriously entertaining achievement of literature-classical myths filtered through the worldly and far from reverent sensibility of the Roman poet Ovid-is revealed anew. '[An] extraordinary translation...brilliant' (Booklist). With an Introduction by the Translator.

For anyone in love with Greco-Roman myths, Ovid's Metamorphoses is a treat. It starts with the creation of the world (Before the sea and lands began to be) and ends with the deification of Julius Caesar (he may forever be the deified / Caesar who contemplates our Capitol). The grand scope covers all the relevant myths. It also includes a brilliant debate between Ulysses and Ajax, listing their deeds in the Trojan war, for the purpose of decided who is the better man to inherit Achilles armour af...more

This review is a part of my phd prep (for myself), and thus tends to be skewed towards answering questions as to the relationships between authors, texts, and readers. Take that as you will.
The lesson is that the gods will punish you if you deserve it, or because of bad luck. This is a beautiful book, wonderfully translated, that tries to create a narrative of the mytholigical history that not only coincides in some way with mythical history (ie: the creation of Thebes), but also explains somet

Having worked my way through Mary Innes' prose translation and found it less than satisfying, I've now selected this version, which immediately on opening it sings a great deal better tune in my ear.
But for sheer enjoyment and colorful phrasing, there's nothing to match the sprightly hexameter of the Golding of 1567, never mind the bizarre English words and archaic spelling. Golding has been roundly criticized for his wordiness (adding 2500 lines to Ovid's 12,000); personally, I care not a whit

I was curious to read Metamorphoses after hearing how much the Golding translation inspired Shakespeare. But the Golding translation is fairly dated, and I found this version in a bookshop in Dublin.
The stories frequently give a strange sense of familiarity and déja vu associated with the best of literature. Not least: the story of Echo and Narcissus, the Gorgon head of Medusa (as part of a Kill Bill style fight scene), flashes from the Iliad and the Aeneid, down to the creation of the world. Th

I love reading classical myths, although Ovid makes it so much harder to understand when he tries to link people and stories as a continuous thread.
