L'Art d'aimer
His erotic elegy covers a wide spectrum of themes and viewpoints; the "Amores" focus on Ovid's relationship with Corinna, the love of mythical characters is the subject of the "Heroides", and the "Ars Amatoria" and the other didactic love poems provide a handbook for relationships and seduction from a (mock-)"scientific" viewpoint. In his treatment of elegy, scholars have traced the influence of rhetorical education in his enumeration, in his effects of surprise, and in his transitional devices.
