Sexual violence is one of the oldest and most difficult problems of
humankind. Many of the "love stories" in Classical Greek and Roman
Myth are tales of rape, a fact that is often casually glossed over
in both popular and scholarly treatments of these narratives.
Through a careful selection of stories, this book provides a deep
exploration of rape in Classical Myth as well as in the works of
art and literature that have responded to it through the millennia.
The volume offers an essential reading for anyone who wishes to
understand sexual violence from different perspectives and through
an interdisciplinary approach, which includes Trauma Theory and
Evolutionary Psychology.
