OVIDS METAMORFOSER hører hjemme blandt eventyrenes skatte sammen med 1001 Nat, Grimm og H.C. Andersen. Beretningen strækker sig fra verdens skabelse til kejser Augustus' tid, og i den ramme får Ovid fortalt de fleste af den græsk-romerske verdens sagn om guder og helte. Han gør det mesterligt, således at digtet i sin helhed er en beskrivelse af menneskelivet og dets vidunderlighed.

Story0
Anacreon (582 BCE–485 BCE) was a Greek lyric poet born in Teos, an Ionian city on the coast of Asia Minor. He likely moved to Thrace in 545 BCE with others from his city when it was attacked by Persians. He then moved to Samos, to Athens, and possibly again to Thessaly, seeking a safe place to write his poems as his patrons (including Polycrates, tyrant of Samos, and Hipparchus, brother of Athenian tyrant Hippias) kept being murdered. It is unknown where Anacreon died, though he lived to the unusually advanced age of 85.

Story0
"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" is a late 14th-century chivalric romance in Middle English. The author is unknown; the title was given centuries later. It is one of the best-known Arthurian stories, with its plot combining two types of folk motifs: the beheading game, and the exchange of winnings. Written in stanzas of alliterative verse, each of which ends in a rhyming bob and wheel; it draws on Welsh, Irish, and English stories, as well as the French chivalric tradition.
