Roman Homosexuality: Ideologies of Masculinity in Classical Antiquity
Craig A. WilliamsWilliams' book argues in detail that for the writers and readers of Roman texts, the important distinctions were drawn not between homosexual and heterosexual, but between free and slave, dominant and subordinate, masculine and effeminate as conceived in specifically Roman terms. Other important questions addressed by this book include the differences between Roman and Greek practices and ideologies; the influence exerted by distinctively Roman ideals of austerity; the ways in which deviations from the norms of masculine sexual practice were negotiated both in the arena of public discourse and in real men's lives; the relationship between the rhetoric of ''nature'' and representations of sexual practices; and the extent to which same-sex marriages were publicly accepted.
