Description
A comprehensive sourcebook on ancient sex and sexuality, Homosexuality in Greece and Rome brings together a vast collection of primary texts from the ancient Mediterranean world. Professor Thomas K. Hubbard has carefully curated this diverse range of materials, including fragmentary texts, inscriptions, graffiti, and literary works, to provide an unparalleled insight into the subject. The translations are rendered by various scholars, faithfully representing a broad spectrum of genres and styles, while the Greek and Latin texts are grouped chronologically and thematically. The book also features an excellent selection of illustrations, including the Warren Cup, which sheds light on pederastic sodomy and voyeurism in ancient Roman culture. This sourcebook is a valuable resource for both students and scholars seeking to explore the complexities of same-sex relationships in ancient Greece and Rome.
