Metamorphoses
Metamorphoses, written by Ovid around 8 AD, is a narrative poem consisting of fifteen books that recounts the creation and history of the world through mythological tales. It serves as a primary source for many famous ancient myths, including those of Daedalus and Icarus, Arachne, and Narcissus. The poem's central theme is transformation, exploring change as a constant aspect of nature. Notably, it employs the dactylic hexameter and is often regarded as a mock-epic, connecting various stories in innovative ways.
