Restraining rage

the ideology of anger control in classical antiquity

"The angry emotions, and the problems they presented, were an ancient preoccupation from Homer to late antiquity. From the first lines of the Iliad to the church fathers of the fourth century A.D., the control or elimination of rage was an obsessive concern. From the Greek world it passed to the Romans. Drawing on a wide range of ancient texts, and on recent work in anthropology and psychology, Restraining Rage explains the rise and persistence of this concern."--BOOK JACKET.
