Demonstrates that Ovid was writing in an artistic atmosphere succumbing to a stranglehold of implicit censorship that culminated in his exile from Rome in 8 AD. The author shows that, in the poem, danger permeates acts of artistic creation. She also demonstrates just how unprecedented the Metamorphoses was in the epic tradition.
