Anachronismus und Aktualisierung in Ovids ›Metamorphosen‹ : Eine Ästhetik uneigentlicher Zeitlichkeit

Abstract

The temporal inconsistencies in Ovid’s "Metamorphoses" are just as multifaceted and numerous as the image that has revealed itself in previous interpretations of these text phenomena – often referred to as "anachronisms" – is blurry and diverse. This volume looks at theories of fiction and language to carry out a systematic reevaluation of Ovid’s poem that does justice to its ambitious aesthetics both in terms of theory and text analysis.
