About Ovid
Ovid, born Publius Ovidius Naso in 43 BCE, was a Roman poet renowned for his influential works, particularly "Metamorphoses," an epic poem that weaves together myths of transformation. His eloquent writing and innovative narrative style significantly impacted Latin literature and later European art and literature. Ovid was exiled to Tomis on the Black Sea in 8 CE for reasons that remain partly mysterious, where he continued to write until his death around 17/18 CE.
