This is Ovid's poetical calendar of the Roman year, with its various observances and festivals, written in elegiacs. Ovid's design was to study the calendar in the light of old annals, and to show what events are commemorated on each day and the origins of the various events.

Ovid (43 BC-AD 17) was born in central Italy. He was sent to Rome where he realised that his talent lay with poetry rather than with politics. His first published work was 'Amores', a collection of short love poems. He was expelled in A.D. 8 by Emperor Augustus for an unknown reason and went to Tomis on the Black Sea, where he died.
