Med sine åpenhjertige skildringer av romernes sexliv har Ovids Kunsten å elske provosert i 2000 år.I Ars amandi - Kunsten å elske får du oppfordringer til voldsbruk, klisjeen om kvinnens umettelige seksuelle appetitt, oppfordring til utroskap og simulerte orgasmer, samt en hel katalog over stillinger som kvinnen bør innta i henhold til hva som kler henne visuelt. Kunsten å elske er et poetisk og pirrende mesterverk, der Ovid utnevner seg til praeceptor amoris - "professor i elskov" - og gir tre leksjoner i kurtise og sex, to til menn og én til kvinner. Verket førte til at Ovid ble sendt i eksil av keiser Augustus. Men om dikteren måtte forlate Roma, så fanget han byens liv for ettertiden i Kunsten å elske. Her kommer vi inn på bankettene, veddeløpsbanen, teatrene og får glimt av de blodige gladiatorkampene. Her kommer vi også inn på vanlige folk, deres tannpuss, hårpleie og seksuelle utfoldelser, på en måte som får de gamle romerne til å bli forbløffende like oss selv. Budskapet er likevel provoserende, men ikke desto mindre friskt og utfordrende i vår romantiske tid: Kjærlighet er kunst, og kunst kan læres.Thea Selliaas Thorsen (f. 1974) har tidligere gjendiktet Ovids Heroides - Heltinnebrev (2001) og Amores - Kjærlighetseventyr (2002).
