Book Synopsis Ambiguity and Religion in Ovid's Fasti by : Darja Šterbenc Erker
Book excerpt: Ovid's Fasti comments on Augustan religion by means of ambivalent aetiologies, elegiac jokes and subtle allusions to the religious self-fashioning of the imperial family. Darja Sterbenc Erker carefully reconstructs Ovid's subtle unmasking of religious fundaments of Augustus' principate.
