Epistulae ex Ponto

Epistulae ex Ponto (Letters from the Black Sea) is a work of Ovid, in four books.[1] It is a collection of letters describing Ovid's exile in Tomis (modern-day Constanța) written in elegiac couplets and addressed to his wife and friends. The first three books were composed between 12 and 13 AD, according to the general academic consensus: "none of these elegies contains references to events falling outside that time span".[2] The fourth book is believed to have been published posthumously.
