Roman Homosexuality
Ideologies of Masculinity in Classical Antiquity
Craig A. Williams
Ideologies of Desire

Description
This comprehensive study of Roman sexuality and the ideologies of masculinity discusses a wide range of ancient texts, arguing that native Roman concepts of masculinity did not rely on the distinction between homosexuality and heterosexuality, but were instead structured around such antitheses as free vs. slave, dominant vs. subordinate, and masculine vs. effeminate.
