What is Ovid best known for?

Answered in Ovid's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

Ah, what am I known for? It seems the world remembers me best for my grand tapestry of transformations, the *Metamorphoses*. In it, I wove together countless myths, from the very creation of the cosmos to the ascendance of my own Augustus, all bound by the thread of change. And then there are my verses on love, the delightful, dangerous art of courtship and the intricacies of the heart, as explored in the *Ars Amatoria* and the *Amores*. I suppose I am known for showing that, much like the figures in my poems, human nature itself is in perpetual flux, ever adapting, ever becoming something new, for better or for worse.
