B. Hall separates \u003cem\u003eTristia\u003c\/em\u003e 1.5, 1.9, 3.4, 4.4, 5.2, and 5.7 into two poems. One reviewer of Hall's edition is highly critical of the editor for not justifying the separation of these poems despite the fact the divisions have manuscript support. Because of the sorry state of the textual transmission of Ovid''s \u003cem\u003eTristia\u003c\/em\u003e, it is sometimes difficult to determine the beginning and end of an individual poem if that poem resumes thematically and verbally where the previous poem concludes. The aim of this study is to show that definitive evidence can be offered to justify division of these six elegies into two poems. Structure combined with theme serves as an analytical tool that defines the beginning and end of the twelve literary pieces under consideration and highlights their artistry. Resolution of the issue of unity enhances our interpretation of the independent poems and our understanding of the complex interplay among poems within each poet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction – \u003ci\u003eTristia \u003c\/i\u003e1.5 and 1.9 – \u003ci\u003eTristia \u003c\/i\u003e3.4 – \u003ci\u003eTristia \u003c\/i\u003e4.4 – \u003ci\u003eTristia \u003c\/i\u003e5.2 and 5.7 – Conclusion – Appendix A: Catullus 8 – Appendix B: Text and Translation – General Index.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51039671583063,"sku":"9781433177422","price":60.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781433177422.jpg?v=1750944431","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/issues-of-unity-in-ovids-tristia-9781433177422","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
