Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. From Emperors and empresses, poets and prostitutes, slaves and plebs, Ancient Rome was a wealth of different experiences and expectations. None more so than around the subject of sex and sexuality. The image of Ancient Rome that has come down to us is one of sexual excess: emperors gripped by perversion partaking in pleasure with whomever and whatever they fancied during week long orgies. But how true are these tales of depravity? Was it really a sexual free for all? What were the laws surrounding sexual engagement? How did these vary according to gender and class? And what happened to those who transgressed the rules? We invite you to climb into bed with the Romans to discover some very odd contraceptive devices, gather top tips on how to attract a partner and learn why you should avoid poets as lovers at all costs. Along the way we'll stumble across potions and spells, emperors and their favourites and some truly eye-popping interior decor choices. AUTHOR: L.J. Trafford studied Ancient History at the University of Reading after which she took a job as a Tour Guide in the Lake District. Moving to London in 2000 she began writing 'The Four Emperors' series. The series comprises four books - Palatine, Galba's Men, Otho's Regret and Vitellius' Feast - which cover the dramatic fall of Nero and the chaotic year of the four emperors that followed. She is a regular contributor to The History Girls blog and once received an Editor's Choice mark from The Historical Novel Society. Her proudest moment remains creating #phallusthursday a popular Twitter hashtag dedicated to depictions of penises in antiquity. 40 b/w illustrations Challenges everything you thought you knew about sexuality in Rome, and covers everything from society's ideals to adultery, homosexuality and how the Roman's managed affairs of the heart with magic and religion.
