Reviews
A highly original group of essays. The authors (as well as the editors) have splendidly accomplished their goal of documenting how close study of the language and iconography, and careful scrutiny of artistic and literary qualities and allusions, illuminate evolving attitudes about marriage. They have made a major contribution to the study of marriage in Greco-Roman antiquity. - Judith P. Hallett, University of Maryland, College Park Illuminating. Presents a good mixture of work by an international array of senior and midcareer scholars. - Sarah B. Pomeroy, Hunter College and the Graduate School of the City of New York
