Homosexuality in Greece and Rome

Book •
Thomas K. Hubbard's 'Homosexuality in Greece and Rome: A Sourcebook of Ancient Documents' assembles extensive primary texts in translation that illuminate attitudes and practices related to same-sex relations in antiquity.

The book provides historical context and sources from literature, law, and philosophy to show the variety and complexity of sexual behaviors and social responses in the ancient Mediterranean.

It is widely used by scholars and students for research into classical sexuality, offering original texts alongside scholarly introductions and notes.

Hubbard's compilation helps readers understand that ancient practices were diverse and contested, countering simplistic assumptions about uniform acceptance.

The work is an important reference for classics, gender studies, and the history of sexuality.
