"The 'Ars amatoria' (The Art of Love) is an instructional elegy series in three books by the ancient Roman poet Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso). Book one of 'Ars amatoria' was written to show a man how to find a woman. In book two, Ovid shows how to keep her. The third book gives women advice on how to win and keep the love of a man."
