This interdisciplinary study explores the meanings of mirrors and
reflections in Roman art and society. When used as metaphors in
Roman visual and literary discourses, mirrors had a strongly moral
force, reflecting not random reality but rather a carefully
filtered imagery with a didactic message. Focusing on examples
found in mythical narrative, religious devotion, social
interaction, and gender relations, Rabun Taylor demonstrates that
reflections served as powerful symbols of personal change. Thus, in
both art and literature, a reflection may be present during moments
of a protagonist's inner or outer transformation.
