IT IS ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY-PRIZED EDITIONS OF THIS OVID MASTERPIECE. 🍍 NOT INCLUDED... 😃 ABOUT THE BOOK: In the first century a.d., Ovid, author of the groundbreaking epic poem Metamorphoses, came under severe criticism for The Art of Love, which playfully instructed women in the art of seduction and men in the skills essential for mastering the art of romantic conquest. In this remarkable translation, James Michie breathes new life into the notorious Roman’s mock-didactic elegy. In lyrical, irreverent English, he reveals love’s timeless dilemmas and Ovid’s enduring brilliance as both poet and cultural critic. CONDITION: Book is in AMAZING condition for its age with some rubs/age spots to the boards and some age spots to the first few and last pages, and a faint erased price on the front paste down. The slipcase is in amazing condition with only some minor rubs from shelfwear (SEE PICS FOR FURTHER DETAILS). NO ATTACHED BOOKPLATES, WRITING FROM PREVIOUS OWNER, ETC. It is a GORGEOUS EDITION.
