The main focus is on the economics of venal sex, meaning precisely the manner in which it was sold, a subject that extends to the ownership, operation, staffing, and location of brothels, as well as to various aspects of nonbrothel prostitution. Though the state of the evidence discourages any and all attempts at quantification, an attempt is made by the author to recover a sense of the role, the presence, and as much as is possible, the lived experience of prostitution city. Unlike most modern societies, the Roman political and legal authorities allowed the business of venal sex to proceed virtually unregulated, with a degree of tolerance that seems strange to a modern sensibility, but with consequences that emerge as sometimes equally foreign to us." "This book should appeal not only to a wide range of classicists, such as legal and social historians, archaeologists, and those interested in the status and role of women in antiquity, but also to scholars with similar specialties in other cultures and historical periods."--Jacket |

The main focus is on the economics of venal sex, meaning precisely the manner in which it was sold, a subject that extends to the ownership, operation, staffing, and location of brothels, as well as to various aspects of nonbrothel prostitution. Though the state of the evidence discourages any and all attempts at quantification, an attempt is made by the author to recover a sense of the role, the presence, and as much as is possible, the lived experience of prostitution city. Unlike most modern societies, the Roman political and legal authorities allowed the business of venal sex to proceed virtually unregulated, with a degree of tolerance that seems strange to a modern sensibility, but with consequences that emerge as sometimes equally foreign to us." "This book should appeal not only to a wide range of classicists, such as legal and social historians, archaeologists, and those interested in the status and role of women in antiquity, but also to scholars with similar specialties in other cultures and historical periods."--Jacket To 1500 fast Prostitution / Histoire / Jusqu'à 1500 Prostitution / Aspect économique / Rome PSYCHOLOGY / Human Sexuality bisacsh SELF-HELP / Sexual Instruction bisacsh Prostitutie gtt Bordelen gtt Economische aspecten gtt Romeinse oudheid gtt Histoire rasuqam Prostitution rasuqam Histoire sociale rasuqam Aspect économique rasuqam Antiquité rasuqam Prostitution fast Prostitution / Economic aspects fast Prostitution swd Prostitution Rome / Social Conditions Geschichte Wirtschaft Prostitution History To 1500 Prostitution Economic aspects Rome Prostitution (DE-588)4047516-5 gnd rswk-swf Rom Römisches Reich Römisches Reich (DE-588)4076778-4 gnd rswk-swf Römisches Reich (DE-588)4076778-4 g Prostitution (DE-588)4047516-5 s 1\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=317929 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
