Sex in Ancient Rome

By Baltasar Rodríguez Oteros

In this new book, which is an extension of the one already published on Kindle: sexuality in Rome, through its texts, we continue to deal with different aspects of sexuality in Rome and in the classical world:
marriage and divorce, life as a couple, sexual relations, the wedding night, more intimate aspects, their parties, their gods, sexual perversions, attacks against sexuality for denigrating purposes, their false sexual morality, misogyny, the reality of slave prostitution.
We include artistic representations of the body and sexuality, with special reference to the city of Pompeii.
All these topics and many more are rigorously treated, faithfully following the texts of the classic authors in bilingual translation: Tacitus, Suetonius, Catullus, Juvenal, the unforgettable Martial... how was the love and sexual life of historical figures such as Julius Caesar, Octavio Augusto, Marco Antonio, Messalina, Nero... and the people of Rome, in their day to day life.
We have removed all grammatical and Latin vocabulary annotations to make reading easier and bring the texts closer to a much wider audience.
