Ovid's Changing Worlds

Ovid's Changing Worlds looks at the four most important English imitations of the Metamorphoses in the English Renaissance: the translations of Arthur Golding and George Sandys, Spenser's Faerie Queene , and Michael Drayton's Poly-Olbion . It sheds new light on dealings with the classics in the period and shows that the emergence of English literature was a complex and fascinating process.
