Tristium Lib. V. et Epistolarum ex ponto Lib. IV.
(Tristia ("Sorrows" or "Lamentations")) - In Latin language with German commentary.
By Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
***
The Tristia ("Sorrows" or "Lamentations") is a collection of letters written in elegiac couplets by the Augustan poet Ovid during his exile from Rome. Despite five books of his copious bewailing of his fate, the immediate cause of Augustus's banishment of the most acclaimed living Latin poet to Pontus in AD 8 remains a mystery. In addition to the Tristia, Ovid wrote another collection of elegiac epistles on his exile, the Epistulae ex Ponto. He spent several years in the outpost of Tomis and died without ever returning to Rome.
