Reviews

Ingleheart's volume is a fine addition to existing scholarship on homosexuality in the ancient world ... it constitutes an inspiring showcase of recent trends in scholarship and provides a useful starting-point for classicists, historians of sexuality and reception scholars alike.
*Martin T. Dinter and Astrid Khoo, International Journal of the Classical Tradition*

his collection stands a ground-breaking and invaluable achievement in sexuality studies. By turning our attention from the reception of ancient Greek sexual discourses, about which countless tomes have been written, towards the reception of Romosexuality, Ingleheart has set the groundwork for subsequent studies. Indeed, this volume achieves -- and surpasses -- its stated goal and is well worth scholarly attention.
