(Originally Written October 4, 2009 in The Journal)
I enjoyed The Amores immensely more than The Art of Love
The Cures for Love
"Yet to recover health demands much suffering"
212-245, sound familiar?
"Every old love's eclipsed by a new"
"Yet to hate the girl you once loved is a crime, an end befitting none but a savage: indifference will suffice"
I enjoyed The Erotic Poems by Ovid, though after all of it the conceit of Ovid became a bit wearing. But, The Amores were far better than The Art of Love or the Cures for Love
