Author: KONSTAN, D.,
Title: In the Orbit of Love. Affection in Ancient Greece and Rome.
Description: Oxford University Press, 2018. 232p. Hardback. 'Konstan (classics, New York Univ.) provides original insights into love in ancient times... Though brief, the book challenges traditional belief on ancient love and theoretical compensation in a concise and clear way. Relationships today are perceived quite differently than they were by the ancient Romans and Greeks, for whom love was much more subtle. These subtleties are the backbone of Konstan's study. Highly Recommended.' (CHOICE). (Publisher's information).
