About this book
Creators: Ovid (44 BCE-18?) "El arte de amar" by Ovid is an instructional elegy series written in 2 AD. This three-book guide offers advice on the art of romance: how men can find and keep a woman, and how women can win and maintain a man's love. Written in elegiac couplets and filled with Greek mythology and Roman life details, the work became wildly popular yet controversial. Its playful instructions influenced medieval literature so profoundly that scholars called the era "the Ovidian epoch," transforming love itself into an academic subject studied for centuries.
