    About this audiobook

    Also known as the "Roman Elegies," Erotica Romana is von Goethe's literary tribute to human sexuality and eroticism.

    Written in 24 elegies to emulate classical Roman elegy writers such as Tibullus, Propertius, and Catullus, von Goethe creates a lyrical work of art that has often been subject to censorship because of the erotic content.
