OVID IN THE MIDDLE AGES
Organized by Frank Coulson, Ohio State University
[Panel as described in Call for
Papers]
Ovid's
poetry was central to the inspiration and development of Medieval Latin
literature. The Medieval Latin Studies Group is sponsoring a panel,
at the January 2005 American Philological Association meeting in
Boston, on Ovid in the Middle Ages. This panel will examine the
reception and
influence of Ovid from late antiquity to the Renaissance. Papers may
examine any aspect of how medieval readers employed and
interpreted Ovid's poetry. Particular interest will be given to papers
dealing with Ovid in the schools, Latin commentaries on the Ovidian
corpus up to the year 1600, Ovidian prologues and their influence on
the vernacular, and the influence of Ovid on the poetry of the
twelfth-century Renaissance.
