Roman Sex: 100 B.C. to A.D. 250 par John Clarke

Roman sex as seen through its art.

The author has studied this subject for over three decades and the book is a wonderful exposition of Roman sex as seen through its art along with references to classical texts. Its amazing to see how Romans regarded sex before Rome was Christianized. It truly was a different world.

This was an age when upper class homes had, what we would consider, pornographic art of people copulating for public display in their homes. Children would no doubt view this art from infancy. Erect penises were everywhere and children wore them around their necks as protective talismans. Like yard Gnomes today, ancient Roman courtyards often had statues of Priapus sporting a monstrous erect penis.

It is also important to point out that upper class Romans were not profligate hedonists, but were in many ways prudes. Sex was just not something considered unnatural or dirty.

If you are interested in this subject, this book would be a wonderful addition to your library.… (plus d'informations)
