Description
In this latest Blackwell Classics podcast, we return to the interview recently recorded with Alastair Blanshard to complete our two-part special on his book 'Sex: Vice and Love from Antiquity to Modernity'. Mirroring the structure of the book, part one of the interview focussed on sex in classical Rome. Now with part two, we turn to Greece, looking at Greek love, homosexuality and the impact they have had on our modern views.
