Male voices in Ovid’s Heroides
Ovid’s Heroides, both the single and double letters, have been intensively explored in terms of the role and character of the female voice throughout the last few decades. The single letters, in particular, supposedly written by well-known legendary heroines abandoned by, or separated from, their “heroic” husbands or lovers, have been extensively treated as regards Ovid’s, i.e. a male poet’s, ability to successfully assume the female voice and wr…
Hero Meets Penelope, Leander Meets Odysseus
In this paper, I investigate the relationship between Penelope's letter to Odysseus (Her. 1) and the letters of Leander and Hero (Her. 18–19), especially Hero's letter to Leander (Her. 19). The peculiarity of this comparative approach lies mainly in the fact that whereas Penelope and Odysseus were one of the most famous couples in ancient literature and the protagonists of a great epic, the Odyssey, Leander and Hero were considerably less known i…
Ovid’s Poetics of Memory and Oblivion in his Exilic Poetry
In this paper I explore the role of memory and oblivion in Ovid’s Tristia and Epistulae ex Ponto. I analyze Ovid’s language of memory and oblivion, I focus on what Ovid remembers or chooses to forget, and I investigate how his memories shape his exilic identity. Memory appears to be Ovid’s sole companion at Tomis, covering for the absence of his wife and his loved ones. It becomes a substitute for physical presence. Although Ovid is not allowed t…
The Rhetoric of Unity and Division in Ancient Literature
This volume, comprising 24 essays, aims to contribute to a developing appreciation of the capacity of rhetoric to reinforce affiliation or disaffiliation to groups. To this end, the essays span a variety of ancient literary genres (i.e. oratory, historical and technical prose, drama and poetry) and themes (i.e. audience-speaker, laughter, emotions, language, gender, identity, and religion)

A Phrygian Tale of Love and Revenge
This chapter explores how lamentation operates as a covert means of revenge in Ovid’s Heroides , a collection of fictional epistolary poems written as though by women from Greek and Roman mythology to the lovers who abandoned and mistreated them. It interprets the fifth letter, in which the nymph Oenone writes to Paris, her former lover, as a letter of revenge that expresses Oenone’s frustration and anger. Ovid’s language and imagery alludes to e…

Mors nigra on Phaeacia
The Intertextual Fate of a Great Homeric Hero
In this paper I argue that the subtext for Ovid's positive portrayal of Diomedes at Rem. 151-167 is the Vergilian episode of Diomedes' reply to the embassy of the Latins (Aen. 11.252-93), and that the adjustment of this episode to the frame of Ovid's erotic didactic is achieved through a number of similarities in diction and theme. Ovid's treatment of the Vergilian Diomedes, however, is subversive and the Vergilian narrative is being undermined a…
