Description
Liv reads selections from Ovid's Ars Amatoria (big thanks to Michaela Smith for the selections and commentary!), translated by Henry T. Riley. Sometimes called a commentary on the idea of love, and elegy broadly, other times simply deemed an ancient guide to picking up women, Ovid's Ars Amatoria is at the very least... entertaining. The incredible twitter thread mentioned is here.CW/TW: Ancient Pick Up Artist style issues... Lots of them.This is not a standard narrative story episode, it's a reading of an ancient source, audiobook style. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads..." in the title!Attributions and licensing information for music used in the podcast can be found here: mythsbaby.com/sources-attributions.
