Among Women: From the Homosocial to the Homoerotic in the Ancient World

by NancySorkinRabinowitz (Editor), Lisa Auanger (Editor)

Synopsis

Women's and men's worlds were largely separate in ancient Mediterranean societies, and, in consequence, many women's deepest personal relationships were with other women. This book explores a wide variety of textual and archaeological evidence for women's homosocial and homoerotic relationships from prehistoric Greece to fifth-century CE Egypt.
