520 $aWhat exactly did same-sex love mean in a culture that had no word or concept comparable to our term 'homosexuality'? How sexual were these attachments?

Drawing on examples from philosophy, poetry, drama, history, and vase painting, Davidson provides fascinating answers to questions that have vexed scholars for generations.
