Fængslets historie kan ikke skrives i ental; historien om fængslet og det fængslede menneske er ikke historien om én enkelt, ensartet institution, hvis rationale og nødvendighed har stået skrevet i sten siden menneskehedens begyndelse. Fængslets historie er snarere en myriade af historier, der tilsammen rummer det væld af måder, hvorpå indespærring, slavegørelse og afstraffelse af mennesker har fundet sted, er blevet praktiseret og retfærdiggjort af skiftende magthavere, samfund og politiske systemer.Denne udgivelse er en samling af nogle af de historier. Ved at udforske forskellige tiders idéer om fængslet kan vi nemlig nærme os vores egen tids syn på denne institution. Vi kan se den fra nye vinkler og vi kan genoverveje dets raison d’etre. For vores nedslag i fængslets historie viser, at retfærdighed – eller mangel på samme – kan tage mange former.

Romerne kaldte den kamp, man elsker sig ud i, når kærligheden kalder, for militia amoris, kærlighedens krigstogt – eller for veneris bella, VENUSKRIGENE. I denne lille smukke bog har filolog Signe Brigitte Andersen udvalgt og oversat en række af de fineste kærlighedsdigte fra ti antikke forfattere, nogle grækere, nogle romere – fra Sapfo og Kallimachos til Horats, Tibul og Ovid. Fra Eros til Amor.I oversættelsen har hun på den ene side lagt vægt på virkningslighed og altså en stil, der matcher originalen, frem for ord-til-ord-oversættelse – mens det på den anden side også er tilstræbt at give en så tekstnær oversættelse som muligt af handling og temaer frem for en gendigtning. Sprogspil er forsøgt fanget, og alle digtene er holdt i den originale metrik i oversættelsen, fordi et digt er en sang, og en sang har rytme.

Ovid's legendary poem, comprising a total of two hundred and fifty ancient myths, is present in its entirety in this edition of The Metamorphoses.The Metamorphoses is commonly referred to simply as an 'epic poem', when in actuality the text encompasses a variety of genres in telling stories of magnificent breadth and scale. At times adventure, at times romance, at times horrifying, and at times amusing - the poem spans the depth of human emotion and experience, expressed in the sublime and significant medium of the poetic verse. Written in the 1st century A.D., The Metamorphoses is thus a supreme chronicle of classical legends and myths. The prevalent polytheistic faiths of the time held that many Gods created the world, with various feuds and adventures between the Godly realms and Earth ensuing for ages thereafter. By the time Ovid authored this work, there were several centuries of myths written and present, which he duly converted into verse form.
