The purpose of this paper is to analyze a fragment form Ovid's Metamorphoses (1 .544-47) on the basis that it is possible to identify in that work a variant of author. We understand variant of author' as the corrections that the author introduces on his text before or after its diffusion and publication. They constitute an important element in the study of the textual genesis, as Lois (2001) states when presenting the bases of textual genetics. In the present case, the writings of the very same Ovid authorize this kind of look over his opera. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Arendt deals not only with the epistemological issues of History but also with the relationship between History and Politics This particular aspect in Arendt's approach, that we will call the political dimension of History, plays a key role In the strengthening o1 the public sphere [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
