Description

Ovid's Art of Love is perhaps one of the most widely read and translated classic Latin poem of all time. This certainly thanks to what is really current also in reference to the present day. In fact, courtship and seduction haven't changed much in the past 2000 years. Here is how the translator divided the second book (of three) of Ovid's original poem, integrating the original text with interesting and intuitive notes. Chapter I How Can You Keep Love? Chapter II Mind overcomes Beauty Chapter III How to Put Yourself at the Service of Your Woman Chapter IV Handmaids, Slaves, Gifts and Poetry Chapter V Admire your Woman and Give Her Attentions and Words of Love Chapter VI Betrayal and Infidelity Chapter VII "Know Yourself" and The Problems of Love Chapter VIII On Modesty and Things that Should Not Be Said Chapter IX On Mature Age and Mutual Pleasure Chapter X Epilogue and Author's Self-celebration
