Absolutely thrilled and amazed that Bahni Turpin will be doing the audiobook narration for my Ovid translation! Here she is reading from Colson Whitehead's The Underground Railroad, the audiobook of which she narrated. https://t.co/th1jl5656W

This Roman novel tells of a man transformed into a donkey who goes on a quest to regain his human form. It offers intriguing glimpses into the lives of marginalized people, including women and the enslaved, and into the treatment of animals. Ruden at her finest!

Just spotted this brand new translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses into Dutch at the Vereniging Classici Nederland meeting I'm attending. https://t.co/082IEj31nu

If I could recommend one episode of Ovid's Metamorphoses, it'd be the speech of Pythagoras in Book 15. It is endlessly fascinating and was my favorite section to translate (with the debate of Ajax and Ulysses in Book 13 a close second!).

I shared this a while back, but I'll share again. This January I'm teaching a 3-session course on Ovid's Metamorphoses through @92NYPoetry. More info here if interested: https://t.co/GQnScQ07xf https://t.co/1iNDXYpOOM

Sappho is one of the few female poets we have from Greco-Roman antiquity, though her work survives mainly in tantalizing fragments. Like the source text, Carson's translation brilliantly evokes a world of female eroticism in sharp contrast with the political maneuverings of men.

Very glad to have a new article out in the new issue of Arethusa! In it, I argue strongly against the oft-repeated notion that in Juvenal's Satire 6 Messalina has gilded nipples or sports pasties. I trace this idea back to Gifford's early 19th c. translation. https://t.co/SpkGne4yvb https://t.co/B6vev7R5uL
