Fournival, Richard de [fl. 13th or 

 14th cent.] . . . De vetula. [Rome?, 

 c. 1470]. Pre-Linn. 1470.1 



This work, now known to be by De Fournival, 

 was formerly attributed to Ovid, and was first 

 printed, probably at Rome, in 1470, under the 

 title "P. Ovidii Nasionis liber de vetula," and 

 at Cologne, 1479. Afterward the authorship 

 came into doubt, for it was combined with an- 

 other work and published under the title "Bru- 

 nellus Vigelli, et vetula Ovidii, seu opuscula duo 

 auctorum incertorum," etc. Wolferbyti, 1662. 



The "De vetula" was translated into French 

 by Jean Lefe^a-e about the middle of the 14th 

 century and remained in MS. until 1855 when 

 it was published in Paris. A later and more 

 critioal edition was issued by Aubry in his 

 "Tr^sor de pieces rares ou infidites" as; 



La vieille, ou les derni^res amours d'Ovide, 

 poeme fran^ais du xiv™e siecle traduit du Latin 

 de Richard de Fournival . . . et pr6c6d6 de re- 

 cherches sur I'auteur dii Vetula, par Hyppolyte 

 Cocheria." Paris, 1861. 



The passage in "La Vieille," which treats of 

 fishing is headed "Comment Ovide tendait aux 

 poissons," and consists of 68 lines.
