"C" before "D"…. Ovid before Dems~
OVID:
In AD 8, Ovid was banished to Tomis, on the Black Sea, by the exclusive intervention of the Emperor Augustus, without any participation of the Senate or of any Roman judge.[18] This event shaped all his following poetry. Ovid wrote that the reason for his exile was carmen et error – "a poem and a mistake",[19] claiming that his crime was worse than murder,[20] more harmful than poetry.[21]
The Emperor's grandchildren, Julia the Younger and Agrippa Postumus (the latter adopted by him), were also banished around the same time. Julia's husband, Lucius Aemilius Paullus, was put to death for a conspiracy against Augustus, a conspiracy of which Ovid potentially knew.[22]
