Foucault's Virginity: Ancient Erotic Fiction and the History of Sexuality
I was looking for a book that would tell me how Homer was received in the archaic and classical periods. It is because I have this paper on Thucydides right now and I wanted to situate how Thucydides uses/sees/understands Homer in the context of other prior/(near)contemporary uses/visions/understandings. There was some frustration. It took me some time to find what I was looking for. I have no idea why. But anyways, here, I found it. This is a great work for anyone interested in classical reception in general. I'll let Barbara sum up the task of her book:
"In this book, I have focused on how the ancient Greeks imagined Homer and have deliberately failed to discuss whether their representations were true to the 'real' poet(s) of the Iliad (and the Odyssey). Instead, I have suggested that ancient depictions of Homer can be history for us in that they express how ancient audiences received the Homeric poems." (p.236)
