Ovid Travesty: A Burlesque Upon Ovid's Epistles (1889)

Ovid Travesty: A Burlesque Upon Ovid's Epistles is a book written by Alexander Radcliffe and published in 1889. This book is a parody of Ovid's Epistles, which were a collection of letters written in verse form by the ancient Roman poet Ovid. Radcliffe's book takes the form of a series of humorous letters written by various characters, including gods and goddesses, to each other. The letters are written in a satirical and irreverent style, mocking the conventions of classical literature and poking fun at the characters and themes of Ovid's original work. The book is a lighthearted and entertaining read, perfect for anyone looking for a humorous take on classical literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
