"A version that has been long awaited, and likely to become the new standard."— Washington Post Ovid's epic poem—whose theme of change has resonated throughout the ages—is one of the most important texts of Western imagination, an inspiration from Dante's times to the present day, when writers such as Salman Rushdie and Italo Calvino have found a living source in Ovid's work. Charles Martin combines a close fidelity to Ovid's text with verse that catches the speed and liveliness of the original. Martin's Metamorphoses will be the translation of choice for contemporary readers in English. This volume also includes endnotes and a glossary of people, places, and personifications. "Martin's complete text is clearly something to look forward to with high expectations."—Bernard Knox, The New York Review of Books "A reader who wants to understand Ovid's poem as a whole, as well as to learn its many famous stories, will find Mr. Martin's clarity and tact invaluable."— The New York Sun "Smoothly readable, accurate, charming, subtle yet clear....A lucidly fluent version of this most flowing of poems."—Richard Wilbur

評分作者用丰富的想象力，根据神话传说的某些外表联系，将它们串连起来。为了使情节生动，作者采用了不同的叙述手法，使许多著名的古代神话传说得到精彩的描述。最喜欢“乡人变蛙的故事”那个故事。奥维德通过变形计代表了从和平时期逐渐到思想独裁时期所产生的隐含的对君主的狭隘...
