Ovid, rival of Virgil in being the greatest poet of the SGolden Age of Latin, was banished in 8 AD from Rome to Tomis (now Constanţa, Romania) by decree of the emperor Augustus. Ovid wrote that the cause of his exile was
carmen et error: "a poem and an error" (Tristia 2, 207 -Tristia means sorrows), probably the Ars Amatoria (a notoriously obscene extended poem) and a personal indiscretion or mistake. It has been speculated that the error was that Ovid had engaged in adultery with the Emperor's daughter, Julia the Elder, or with his granddaughter Julia the Younger; or had been witness to their adultery with someone else.
In any case, in 2017, the city of Rome, revoked the exile. (
