I should have kept reading wikipedia,
The Amores is a poetic first person account
of the poetic persona's love affair with an
unattainable higher class girl, Corinna. It
is not always clear if the author is writing
about Corinna or a generic puella. Ovid
does not assume a single woman as a subject
of a chronical obsession of the persona of
lover. The plot is linear, with a few artistic
digressions such as an elegy on the death of
Tibullus.
So, can we just how this ultimately translates to a strategy, or
are we expected to believe that this is just some playfulness?
I am not suggesting anything bad, but it might help with whatever
the "plan" is to just get on with it and not waste anyone's time
guessing how this party ends. I'm particularly interested in
what other references are coming down the pike.
So we got Cor (heart in Latin) that became Corinna (said "higher
class girl). Then Amores, defined above. I'm just super curious
now. :-)
