In the Orbit of Love: Affection in Ancient Greece and Rome
Oup Usa (2018)
Abstract
This book is about love in the classical world -- not erotic passion but the love that binds together intimate members of a family and close friends, but may also include a wider range of individuals for whom we care deeply. Among the topics discussed are friendship, loyalty, gratitude, grief, and civic solidarity.Author's Profile
