  • - Gender, Desire, and Denial in the Age of Justinian
    by New York) Smith & Steven D. (Hofstra University
    £29.99

    Sexy, scintillating, and sometimes scandalous, Greek epigrams from the age of the Emperor Justinian commemorate the survival of the sensual in a world transformed by Christianity. This book will appeal to literary scholars and historians interested in Greek poetry, Late Antiquity, Byzantine studies, early Christianity, gender, and sexuality.

  • - The Literary Imagination of Claudius Aelianus
    by New York) Smith & Steven D. (Hofstra University
    £31.99

    This book argues that Aelian's important work on animals, the De natura animalium, represents a sophisticated literary critique of Severan Rome. His fascination with animals reflects the cultural issues of his day: philosophy, religion, the exoticism of Egypt and India, sex, gender, and imperial politics.
