This volume aims to provide an interdisciplinary examination of
various facets of being alone in Greco-Roman antiquity. Its focus
is on solitude, social isolation and misanthropy, and the differing
perceptions and experiences of and varying meanings and
connotations attributed to them in the ancient world. Individual
chapters examine a range of ancient contexts in which problems of
solitude, loneliness, isolation and seclusion arose and were
discussed, and in doing so shed light on some of humankind's
fundamental needs, fears and values.
