Unit 2: Crime and Punishment |
>> |
 |
 |
|
|
|
Unit 2
is devoted to the tales of Lycaon, Actaeon, Arachne, and
Erysichthon, each of whom runs afoul of the gods.
All
of these stories illustrate a common function of metamorphosis in
Ovid, namely metamorphosis as punishment, whether deserved or not. |
