Epica ed elegia di età augustea

Even though I do not consider myself to be an "Ovidianist" in the strict sense, I have long studied Ovid from different perspectives, including the aspect of literary genre, the use/reuse of models, and the reception of his works. I am currently dealing with his invective poetry (Ibis) and his elegiac epistles, the Heroides, which I resumed after more than a decade by contributing to a soon-to-be-published volume (edited by A.N. Michalopoulos, S. Alekou and D. Keramida), and by organizing an international conference in Udine.
