Peu edite et surtout peu traduit, le Contre Ibis est sans doute l’oeuvre la plus violente d’Ovide: exile a Tomes, l’auteur des Tristes s’en prend a une ancienne relation, qu’il surnomme Ibis, qui tourmenterait la femme du poete et en voudrait a ses biens. C’est une veritable malediction, dans le gout des arai des poetes alexandrins, et notamment de Callimaque qui ecrivit lui aussi un Contre Ibis, a la fois source et modele de notre texte, qu’Ovide entend lancer a son adversaire. Apres une serie d’attaques personnelles, suit, en guise d’exemples, une liste des heros qui eurent une fin tragique. Le texte s’acheve sur les differentes morts que merite Ibis.Notre edition reprend la question de la place du Contre Ibis dans la chronologie des oeuvres d’exil. L’introduction propose une analyse approfondie de l’influence de la poesie hellenistique sur Ovide et sur les autres poetes augusteens. L’ouvrage est complete par d’abondantes notes ainsi que par un index nominum.
