Resumen
Metamorfóseos o Transformaciones is the first volume of Ovid’s monumental mythological epic Metamorphoses, a poetic masterpiece composed in fifteen books. This opening installment introduces the reader to a vast tapestry of Greco-Roman myths, all connected by the theme of transformation—gods, humans, and creatures shifting forms in response to love, vengeance, sorrow, or divine will.
Beginning with the creation of the world and moving through early legendary tales, Ovid weaves together stories filled with drama, beauty, and moral ambiguity.
With vivid imagery and elegant verse, this foundational work profoundly shaped Western art, literature, and imagination for centuries.
