The Scotsman Mark Alexander Boyd proposes, in his 1592 collection, "other heroids", in which he gives voice to more diverse women than Ovid did. The article focuses on four epistles written in a Roman context (letters from Rhea Silvia to Mars, from Lavinia to Turnus, from Sophonisbe to Massinissa and from Pauline to Mundus), analyzes the modalities of Ovid's imitation, while underlining some original elements on Boyd's part.
