Elegy originates with Propertius and Tibullus, but Ovid is an innovator in the genre. Ovid changes the leader of his elegies from the poet, to Amor (Love or Cupid). This switch in focus from the triumphs of the poet, to the triumphs of love over people is the first of its kind for this genre of poetry. This Ovidian innovation can be summarized as the use of love as a metaphor for poetry.<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The books describe the many aspects of love and focus on the poet's relationship with a mistress called Corinna.

The first tells of Ovid's intention to write epic poetry, which is thwarted when <a href="/wiki/Cupid" title="Cupid">Cupid</a> steals a metrical foot from him, changing his work into love elegy. Poem 4 is didactic and describes principles that Ovid would develop in the <span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Ars_Amatoria" title="Ars Amatoria">Ars Amatoria</a></i></span>. The fifth poem, describing a noon tryst, introduces Corinna by name. Poems 8 and 9 deal with Corinna selling her love for gifts, while 11 and 12 describe the poet's failed attempt to arrange a meeting. Poem 14 discusses Corinna's disastrous experiment in dyeing her hair and 15 stresses the immortality of Ovid and love poets. </p><p>The second book has 19 pieces; the opening poem tells of Ovid's abandonment of a <a href="/wiki/Gigantomachy" class="mw-redirect" title="Gigantomachy">Gigantomachy</a> in favor of <a href="/wiki/Elegy" title="Elegy">elegy</a>. Poems 2 and 3 are entreaties to a guardian to let the poet see Corinna, poem 6 is a lament for Corinna's dead parrot; poems 7 and 8 deal with Ovid's affair with Corinna's servant and her discovery of it, and 11 and 12 try to prevent Corinna from going on vacation. Poem 13 is a prayer to <a href="/wiki/Isis" title="Isis">Isis</a> for Corinna's illness, 14 a poem against abortion, and 19 a warning to unwary husbands. </p><p>Book 3 has 15 poems. The opening piece depicts personified Tragedy and Elegy fighting over Ovid. Poem 2 describes a visit to the races, 3 and 8 focus on Corinna's interest in other men, 10 is a complaint to <a href="/wiki/Ceres_(mythology)" title="Ceres (mythology)">Ceres</a> because of her festival that requires abstinence, 13 is a poem on a festival of <a href="/wiki/Juno_(mythology)" title="Juno (mythology)">Juno</a>, and 9 a lament for <a href="/wiki/Tibullus" title="Tibullus">Tibullus</a>. In poem 11 Ovid decides not to love Corinna any longer and regrets the poems he has written about her. The final poem is Ovid's farewell to the erotic muse.

The first book addresses men and teaches them how to seduce women, the second, also to men, teaches how to keep a lover. The third addresses women and teaches seduction techniques. The first book opens with an invocation to Venus, in which Ovid establishes himself as a <i>praeceptor amoris</i> (1.17) – a teacher of love. Ovid describes the places one can go to find a lover, like the theater, a triumph, which he thoroughly describes, or arena – and ways to get the girl to take notice, including seducing her covertly at a banquet. Choosing the right time is significant, as is getting into her associates' confidence. </p><p>Ovid emphasizes care of the body for the lover. Mythological digressions include a piece on the <a href="/wiki/Rape_of_the_Sabine_women" title="Rape of the Sabine women">Rape of the Sabine women</a>, <a href="/wiki/Pasipha%C3%AB" title="Pasiphaë">Pasiphaë</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Ariadne" title="Ariadne">Ariadne</a>. Book 2 invokes Apollo and begins with a telling of the story of <a href="/wiki/Icarus" title="Icarus">Icarus</a>. Ovid advises men to avoid giving too many gifts, keep up their appearance, hide affairs, compliment their lovers, and ingratiate themselves with slaves to stay on their lover's good side. The care of Venus for procreation is described as is Apollo's aid in keeping a lover; Ovid then digresses on the story of <a href="/wiki/Hephaestus#Hephaestus_and_Aphrodite" title="Hephaestus">Vulcan's trap for Venus and Mars</a>. The book ends with Ovid asking his "students" to spread his fame. Book 3 opens with a vindication of women's abilities and Ovid's resolution to arm women against his teaching in the first two books. Ovid gives women detailed instructions on appearance telling them to avoid too many adornments. He advises women to read elegiac poetry, learn to play games, sleep with people of different ages, flirt, and dissemble. Throughout the book, Ovid playfully interjects, criticizing himself for undoing all his didactic work to men and mythologically digresses on the story of <a href="/wiki/Procris#Ovid" title="Procris">Procris</a> and <a href="/wiki/Cephalus#Husband_of_Procris" title="Cephalus">Cephalus</a>. The book ends with his wish that women will follow his advice and spread his fame saying <i>Naso magister erat,</i> "Ovid was our teacher".

The poem criticizes suicide as a means for escaping love and, invoking Apollo, goes on to tell lovers not to procrastinate and be lazy in dealing with love. Lovers are taught to avoid their partners, not perform magic, see their lover unprepared, take other lovers, and never be jealous. Old letters should be burned and the lover's family avoided. The poem throughout presents Ovid as a doctor and utilizes medical imagery.

The ways that stories are linked by geography, themes, or contrasts creates interesting effects and constantly forces the reader to evaluate the connections. Ovid also varies his tone and material from different literary genres; <a href="/wiki/Gian_Biagio_Conte" title="Gian Biagio Conte">G. B.

The six books cover the first semester of the year, with each book dedicated to a different month of the <a href="/wiki/Roman_calendar" title="Roman calendar">Roman calendar</a> (January to June). The project seems unprecedented in Roman literature. It seems that Ovid planned to cover the whole year, but was unable to finish because of his exile, although he did revise sections of the work at Tomis, and he claims at <i>Trist.</i> 2.549–52 that his work was interrupted after six books. Like the <i>Metamorphoses</i>, the <i>Fasti</i> was to be a long poem and emulated etiological poetry by writers like <a href="/wiki/Callimachus" title="Callimachus">Callimachus</a> and, more recently, <a href="/wiki/Propertius" title="Propertius">Propertius</a> and his fourth book. The poem goes through the Roman calendar, explaining the origins and customs of important Roman festivals, digressing on mythical stories, and giving astronomical and agricultural information appropriate to the season. The poem was probably dedicated to <a href="/wiki/Augustus" title="Augustus">Augustus</a> initially, but perhaps the death of the emperor prompted Ovid to change the dedication to honor <a href="/wiki/Germanicus" title="Germanicus">Germanicus</a>. Ovid uses direct inquiry of gods and scholarly research to talk about the calendar and regularly calls himself a <i><a href="/wiki/Vates" title="Vates">vates</a></i>, a seer. He also seems to emphasize unsavory, popular traditions of the festivals, imbuing the poem with a popular, <a href="/wiki/Plebeian" class="mw-redirect" title="Plebeian">plebeian</a> flavor, which some have interpreted as subversive to the Augustan moral legislation.<sup id="cite_ref-58" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-58"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> While this poem has always been invaluable to students of Roman religion and culture for the wealth of antiquarian material it preserves, it recently has been seen as one of Ovid's finest literary works and a unique contribution to Roman elegiac poetry. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id='Ibis_("The_Ibis")'><span id="Ibis_.28.22The_Ibis.22.29"></span><i>Ibis</i> ("The Ibis")</h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Ovid&amp;action=edit&amp;section=14" title='Edit section: Ibis ("The Ibis")' class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Ibis_(Ovid)" title="Ibis (Ovid)">Ibis (Ovid)</a></div> <p>The <i>Ibis</i> is an elegiac poem in 644 lines, in which Ovid uses a dazzling array of mythic stories to curse and attack an enemy who is harming him in exile.

He cites Callimachus' <i>Ibis</i> as his inspiration and calls all the gods to make his curse effective. Ovid uses mythical exempla to condemn his enemy in the afterlife, cites evil prodigies that attended his birth, and then in the next 300 lines wishes that the torments of mythological characters befall his enemy.

The <i>Epistulae</i> are each addressed to a different friend and focus more desperately than the <i>Tristia</i> on securing his recall from exile. The poems mainly deal with requests for friends to speak on his behalf to members of the imperial family, discussions of writing with friends, and descriptions of life in exile. The first book has ten pieces in which Ovid describes the state of his health (10), his hopes, memories, and yearning for Rome (3, 6, 8), and his needs in exile (3). Book 2 contains impassioned requests to Germanicus (1 and 5) and various friends to speak on his behalf at Rome while he describes his despair and life in exile. Book 3 has nine poems in which Ovid addresses his wife (1) and various friends. It includes a telling of the story of <a href="/wiki/Iphigenia#Among_the_Taurians" title="Iphigenia">Iphigenia in Tauris</a> (2), a poem against criticism (9), and a dream of Cupid (3). Book 4, the final work of Ovid, in 16 poems talks to friends and describes his life as an exile further. Poems 10 and 13 describe Winter and Spring at Tomis, poem 14 is halfhearted praise for Tomis, 7 describes its geography and climate, and 4 and 9 are congratulations on friends for their consulships and requests for help. Poem 12 is addressed to a Tuticanus, whose name, Ovid complains, does not fit into meter. The final poem is addressed to an enemy whom Ovid implores to leave him alone.
