Malum, pomum or fetus? Naming fruits in Ov. Her. 20-21

Andreas Michalopoulos¹

Abstract: In the last pair of letters of his Heroides (20-21) Ovid treats the story of Acontius and Cydippe. Ovid himself considers this story as elegiac material par excellence, in contrast to Achilles who naturally belongs to epic (Rem. 381-2):Callimachi numeris non est dicendus Achilles; Cydippe non est oris, Homere, tui.
