Ovidius Nazon, very popular among his contemporaries and surrounded by love, lived carefree in Rome, had a beautiful house in the center of Rome, had a beloved wife and a daughter (from his third marriage), when, suddenly, about fifty poets, by order of Octavianus Augustus, a.d. In the 8th year, he was exiled from the capital, Rome, to a remote and at that time lost area - the small town of Tomis (now Constanta, Romania). The reason for the exile remains a mystery to this day, although the poet himself names his own poems as the first and undoubted reason, which caused him great passion.
Many opinions and hypotheses have been expressed regarding this issue, but this story is not completely clear, it still remains a mystery; Ovid is there condemned to live among the half-savage Sarmatians and Goths till the day of his death; His "Bile Elegies" and "Letters from Pontus" will be written there; These elegies are the pleading voice of the poet asking to return to his native land.
With the Pontic elegies ("Bile Elegies", "Letters from Pontus"), Ovid created a new, different type of stylistic poetry, which is no less similar to his previous works: this is a new genre, the theme of this genre of elegies is untested and unique for the literature of that time - loneliness .
This topic is very familiar and relevant to us, today's readers, even romantic literature at the turn of the 18th-19th centuries created a new type of hero - a lonely person who confronts the surrounding world; The greatest writers of the 20th century revolve around the theme of human existential loneliness and try to reveal and understand all its aspects in their works. But in the 1st century BC, this topic is mentioned for the first time with Ovid. It was a novelty for antiquity.” – from the translator's preface
