La moralización de Las Metamorfosis de Ovidio en florilegios latinos poéticos de la primera mitad de siglo XVI

Abstract

This article analyses the reuse of Ovid’s Metamorphoses in the Latin poetic florilegia of the first half of the 16th century to establish whether there is a break between the criteria of medieval and Renaissance selections; whether the Neoplatonic current of interpretation of classical texts has influenced the selection of extracts and, finally, whether the reuse of Ovidian gods and myths is evidence of some kind of social criticism.
