Drawing on artifacts from the collection of the Museo Nazionale di Villa Giulia and other distinguished institutions, it chronicles the many faces of Eros — from the mischievous winged deity of myth to the deeply human experiences of desire, courtship, and sensuality depicted on vases, terracottas, and bronzes. The work situates these objects within their broader cultural and religious contexts, illustrating how ancient Mediterranean societies understood love not merely as a private emotion but as a powerful, even cosmic, force. Written in an authoritative yet accessible academic tone, it serves as an essential reference for students and scholars of classical archaeology, art history, and ancient culture alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48792180424923,"sku":"2026200004837-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f5b55828-f44b-45a3-b204-d099451bfc4a.png?v=1779273006","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200004837-secondhand-eros-in-antiquity","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
