Product Description

Review
'In Changing Bodies, Changing Meanings edited by Dominic Montserrat, cross-disciplinary approaches are employed to interpret shifting views of the human body in European antiquity. They uncover a diversity of attitudes - treatments of the body conveying ideologies of status, gender, ethnicity, nature and culture, in Greece, Egypt and Rome just as in the Americas.' - Nicholas Saunders, Times Higher Educational Supplement

'This is an important work on an important and fascinating subject.' - Ancient

Product Description
This beautifully illustrated book is the first to place at its centre the emotional and experiential aspect of the body in antiquity.
