Appendix Ovidiana

"The present volume brings together virtually all surviving Latin poems that were ascribed to Ovid between roughly 500 and 1500. The majority of these were composed in the Middle Ages, but some are classical in origin. All, however, were at least once attributed to Ovid, even if today's scholarly consensus labels them inauthentic and so designates them as pseudo-Ovidiana. This body of poetry, then, reflects medieval understandings of the greatly admired classical poet, expanding and developing Ovid's legacy."--
