This double volume contains both the Fall and the Spring issues of the journal for 2021 and features a collection of articles on the topic Ovid's Heroides. The Guest Editor, Chiara Battistella, has brought together an international cast of scholars in the field of Roman poetry and Ovid's Heroides. Their contributions in this issue bring Heroides at the center of Ovidian studies and bear witness to the renewed interest in Ovid's female heroines as well as to a host of new questions and interpretations of the epistles. The double issue also contains five additional articles on archaic music and poetry, gender and comedy, politics and oratory, biography, and Roman poetry during the Silver Age.
