Ovid’s Metamorphoses and the Remaking of Myth

Princeton University’s C. Luke Soucy will discuss the appeal and legacy of Ovid’s irreverent epic, “Metamorphoses,” from antiquity through the Renaissance and into the present, as well as the challenges Soucy encountered creating his short-listed National Translation Award version of the work. Participants are encouraged to bring refreshments to share at a post-program reception. Doors open at 4:45 p.m.
