Witty, playful, and daringly subversive.
In The Art of Love, the Roman poet Ovid offers a mischievous guide to the arts of seduction, romance, and desire. Blending sharp observation with sly humor, Ovid’s verses sparkle with the wit and sophistication that scandalized his contemporaries and secured his place among the greatest poets of classical antiquity.
James Michie’s elegant translation captures both the elegance and the irreverence of Ovid’s voice, making these timeless instructions in love as engaging for the modern reader as they were for audiences in ancient Rome.
Presented in this finely crafted Folio Society edition, The Art of Love is more than a literary treasure—it is an invitation into a world where passion, poetry, and playful wisdom meet.
