LUDWIG, W., Struktur und Einheit der Metamorphosen Ovids. De Gruyter, Berlin, 1965. 101p. Sewn.'In this clear and compact monograph Ludwig presents a structural scheme for the 'Metamorphoses' that is based on the essential ('innere') relationships of the constituent stories to each other and to the whole. (...) In his interesting concluding discussion Ludwig seeks to relate the 'Metamorphoses' to the tradition of universal history in antiquity. (...) The structure of the poem is the product of the interaction between Ovid's grand design and the free play of association.This is a valuable contribution to a fascinating subject.' (E.J. KENNEY in The Classical Review (New Series), 1965, pp.295-96). € 16.00 (Antiquarian)
