Hailed as a 'landmark study' when it first appeared, Greek Homosexuality remains an academic milestone and continues to be of major importance for students and scholars of gender studies, particularly within Classics. Kenneth Dover asks to what extent and in what ways was homosexuality - male and female - approved by the ancient Greeks? He examines the evidence - vase paintings, archaic and classical poetry, the dialogues of Plato, speeches in the law courts, the comedies of Aristophanes - and reaches provocative conclusions. Long out of print in the UK, this new release of the second edition, with an epilogue by the author reflecting on the impact of his book, has a specially commissioned foreword assessing the place of this volume within modern studies of gender in the ancient world.
