Although Marinos work has been characterized as a mythological poem with the tragic tale of Venus and Adonis at its core and woven through with retellings of many Greek and Roman myths, it is clear that Marino strove to write more than an Italian version of Ovids <em>Metamorphoses</em>. The highly wrought descriptive passages that permeate the poem, the allusions to contemporary political figures and events, and the rich scientific, philosophical, and theological language of many passages reflect Marinos particular poetic style, his broad interests, and his engagement with the political and intellectual scene of early seventeenth-century Europe. One of the goals of this translation is to provide a highly accessible version of the whole poem and to expand its readership to include not only students and scholars of the romance epic and the early modern period but also curious general readers. It is hoped that this modern, annotated translation will spur new research on Marinos poem and bear new assessments of the poems relation to its sources, of its influence on later literature, and of its vital connection with key issues of Marinos time, such as scientific advancement, discovery and exploration, and the power and influence of the Catholic Church.</p><p>Translated, with introduction and notes by Thomas E.
