This spirited collection offers diverse views on the uptake and remediation of Ovid, from direct citation and allusion to structure, character, and style. Extending the critical purview to include such matters as queer gender informants, arborified women, sovereign power, and tyrannical rapture, the contributors expose the complex dimensions of Ovid's openness to derivation, his rhizomatic and dialogic modes of influence and his ongoing spectral presence as Renaissance texts are remixed in the present day.-- ""Valerie Traub, co-editor of Ovidian Transversions: Iphis and Ianthe, 1350-1650 (EUP, 2019)"" Throughout the collection there is excellent analysis of texts and some very inventive readings and comparisons. [...] This volume offers a significant contribution to the field.--Sarah Carter, Nottingham Trent University ""Translation and Literature""
