Tristes. Cartas del Ponto es una colección de poemas escritos por el poeta romano Ovidio durante su exilio en Tomis, a orillas del Mar Negro. En estos versos, Ovidio expresa su tristeza, soledad y anhelo por regresar a Roma, así como su defensa personal y súplicas a amigos y al emperador para obtener el perdón. La obra ofrece una visión íntima de la vida y los sentimientos del autor en el exilio, y es un testimonio conmovedor de la condición humana ante la adversidad.
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.
