About this product

Product Information

Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this study examines the different representations of women in the Odyssey and their significance within the context of the poem and Greek culture. A central theme of the book is the visualization of the Odyssey 's female characters by ancient artists. Several essays discuss the visual and iconographic implications of Odysseus' female encounters in Greek, Etruscan and Roman art.
