Las Metamorfosis de Ovidio es una obra clásica de la mitología grecorromana, escrita por uno de los mejores autores de la literatura latina. Este libro, dividido en quince partes, narra cronológicamente desde los orígenes del mundo hasta la época del poeta, entrelazando más de doscientas historias de transformaciones. Entre los relatos más destacados se encuentran los de Apolo y Dafne, Júpiter y Europa, y Eco y Narciso, que han servido de inspiración a lo largo de los siglos para diversas expresiones artísticas y científicas, consolidándose como pilares del imaginario occidental.

Publius Ovidius Naso, known in English as Ovid, was a Roman poet who lived during the reign of Augustus. He was a younger contemporary of Virgil and Horace, with whom he is often ranked as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature. The Imperial scholar Quintilian considered him the last of the Latin love elegists. Although Ovid enjoyed enormous popularity during his lifetime, the emperor Augustus exiled him to Tomis, the capital of the newly organised province of Moesia, on the Black Sea, where he remained for the last nine or ten years of his life. Ovid himself attributed his banishment to a carmen et error, but his reluctance to disclose specifics has resulted in much speculation among scholars.
