Ovid’s Creusa

This article makes two interconnected suggestions about source inspiration for Ovid’s myth of Apollo and Daphne. The first proposes a new lineage for Daphne and considers her genealogy in both a literal and literary way. The second uses the vantage point of Daphne’s literary background to reinterpret anew the multiplicity of meanings behind Apollo’s naming as Paean at the close of the myth. These reinterpretations show how Ovid uses the hymnic genre to set up and structure this myth in ways not yet fully explored
