Ovid: Amores Book II (First published in the United Kingdom in 1991. Rep)

Ovid’s three books of personal love elegies are arguably his most attractive work.

In this acclaimed edition of Amores Book II, Joan Booth offers a Latin text with parallel prose translation and on each poem, or pair of poems, a critical essay written especially for the reader with little or no Latin.

For the more advanced scholars she also provides a traditional line by line commentary on the Latin text and a generously select apparatus criticus.
