While Augustus represents the political architect of the era, the bimillennium of the poet Ovid focused on the endurance of his literary "transfiguration".
Contemporary readings of Ovid's exile poetry have shifted to look at the "disfiguration" of his career—a "real and abominable" event that tore his life apart, rather than just a literary trope.
The 2,000th anniversary of Ovid's death saw the first professional meeting in China dedicated to the poet, titled "Globalizing Ovid," which explored his influence on 18th-century Chinese porcelain.
The following paper explores the cultural and scholarly impact of these 2,000-year milestones, specifically focusing on the recent commemorations of Augustus and the poet Ovid.
Scholars used the occasion to ask how Augustus’ "equivocal and contradictory career" has been received across different cultural contexts.
