The Ars amatoria (English: The Art of Love) is an instructional elegy series in three books by the ancient Roman poet Ovid. Book one of Ars amatoria was written to show a man how to find a woman. All of Ovid's works were burned by Savonarola in Florence, Italy in 1497; an English translation of the Ars amatoria was seized by U.S. Customs in 1930.[10] Despite the actions against the work, it continues to be studied in college courses on Latin literature.[11] ^ Dutton, Jacqueline, The Rape of the Sabine Women, Ovid Ars amatoria Book I: 101-134, master's dissertation, University of Johannesburg, 2005 Wikimedia Commons has media related to Ars Amatoria.
