Reviews
'This volume will be a much-used starting point for students and scholars of Greek male sexuality.'Β Times Higher Education Supplement 'Images of Ancient Greek Pederasty establishes a carefully defined approach to an important and controversial topic. The book examines a considerably wider range of images than has been previously available and locates them in a clear and engaging fashion in a cultural context.' - Helene P. Foley,Β Barnard College, Columbia University 'This book meets a real need. The very fact that the authors' analysis is based on study of approximately 1000 vases (111 of which they illustrate) makes Images of Ancient Greek Pederasty a valuable resource, and an appendix including a catalogue of 647 vases compiled by the late Keith DeVries only adds to its value. The book greatly expands the amount of material available to nonspecialists, demonstrating that there are considerably more pederastic scenes in the surviving vases than has generally been believed, and its balanced and articulate readings of the material--the authors carefully describe recurring patterns, make allowance for exceptions, discuss alternative interpretations, and do not press when the evidence only goes so far--make it a significant contribution to our understanding of Greek pederasty.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review 'a welcome addition to the study of ancient sexuality and, more importantly, a shining example of the use of iconography and visual language indeed, of material culture in the study of ancient societies.'
