Resources

Throughout this project, we are drawing on a variety of material, including, of course Ovid's Metamorphoses.

Here are links to some of the material we're drawing upon:

• A short introductory guide to Ancient Pantomime on the Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama (APGRD)
• Online access to Ovid's Metamorphoses, in Latin and in English, through the Perseus Digital Library.
• Online Onomasticon of Ovid's Metamophosis
• Ovid's Metamorphoses on sparknotes; a shortcut to the Metamorphoses, which of course only complements the actual text. 
• Jacques Lecoq's The moving body (Le corps poétique) on google books. 
• Monika Beisner's series of artworks inspired by Ovid's Metamorphoses
• a fabulous repository of woodcuts and engravings illustrating Ovid's Metamorphoses from the university of Vermont
• the Warburg Institute's Iconographic Database

Add to that a wealth of hardcopies of various scholarly articles and books on Ovid, on myths, and on archetypes, and thus ranging from a conference paper on the expression of emotions in Antiquity by Dr Helen Slaney (for example, cf this book of abstracts of an Open University conference on Multi-sensory approaches to Roman culture), to The Archetypes and the Collective Uncounscious (Collected Works of C.G. Jung).
