Metamorphoses by Ovid, translated by David Raeburn, introduced by Denis Feeney (Penguin, £8.99) As you must be a rather cultivated person to be reading this section of the paper, you probably. I was about to dive into Michael Hofmann's 'After Ovid: New Metamorphoses' but before doing so, I thought it prudent to read a complete translation of the original, since many years have passed since I read Books 6, 10, 11 and 12 and I'm no longer sure that I ever did work my way through the entire set.
- Synopsis
- Ovid drew on Greek mythology, Latin folklore and legend from ever further afield to create a series of narrative poems, ingeniously linked by the common theme of transformation. Here a chaotic universe is subdued into harmonious order: animals turn to stone; men and women become trees and stars. Ovid himself transformed the art of storytelling, infusing these stories with new life through his subtley, humour and understanding of human nature, and elegantly tailoring tone and pace to fit a variety of subjects. The result is a lasting treasure-house of myth and legend.

In addition to the Classical images of Echo and Narcissus, there are numerous visual works of art featuring one or both of the mythical pair.Renaissance representations usually show Narcissus as a teenaged, sometimes cherubic, youth staring longingly into water. He is often seen in these works at the moment when he has discovered his reflection. Late Baroque and Rococo depictions often place Narcissus in Arcadia and tend to emphasize the idealism of classical culture rather than the myth itself. More modern representations are narrative and illustrate the temptation of youthful beauty. The same bloody, pre-Ovidian account of Narcissus is given by Conon (late 1st century BC), an obscure Greek mythographer who in his 'Narratives' ( Diegeseis), tells of Narcissus and his rejected lover Ameinias:Ameinias was very adamant and needy. Since he was not desired in return he took a sword and killed himself before the doors of Narcissus, praying earnestly for the god to avenge him.
Accordingly, Narcissus when he saw his appearance and beauty in a stream fell adamantly in love with himself. Finally being at a loss and believing that he had suffered justly in return for how he had humiliated him Ameinias, he killed himself. Another alternative, as related by the 2nd-century-AD travel-writer, Pausanias (Book IX, 31.6-9):There is another story about Narcissus, less popular indeed than the other, but not without some support. It is said that Narcissus had a twin sister; they were exactly alike in appearance, their hair was the same, they wore similar clothes, and went hunting together. The story goes on that Narcissus fell in love with his sister, and when the girl died, would go to the spring, knowing that it was his reflection that he saw, but in spite of this knowledge finding some relief for his love in imagining that he saw, not his own reflection, but the likeness of his sister.
