Ovid II: The Art of Love and Other Poems (Loeb Classical Library 232)

Rating:
Summary: Fascinating Insights
Review: I read this book as a part of a review of Roman Literature. I have to say, of almost all I have, Ovid's "The Art Of Love" gives the most insight into life in ancient Rome. It is also extremely funny, with jokes that still make you laugh after all these years. Of course the advice given is hardly usable today, but it is so well written, it deserves to be read by anyone interested in the art of love.
