Papers On Greek & Roman Literature
Page 51 of 66

Plato/Phaedrus
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page essay that explores the content and meaning of Plato's dialogue Phaedrus. This examination of this dialogue concentrates on Plato's first argument, which concerns his rejection of sexually possessive love. While couched within a context that suggests that Plato is presenting this argument tongue-in-cheek, there is nevertheless the indication that he is also serious in arguing against the passions of erotic love. While certainly there is an element of truth to Plato's position, there is also the fact that love can play an uplifting role in human life, which is acknowledged by Plato in the latter half of the dialogue. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Pompeii/Was There Prostitution in the Baths?
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 research paper that investigates this question. Numerous erotic frescoes, which have been buried under volcanic ash for the last 2000 years, have been unearthed by archeologists in ancient Roman city of Pompeii. Seven erotic frescoes, depicting a great deal of sexual activity involving numerous partners (which includes perhaps the only lesbian scene in Pompeii), were revealed and opened for viewing by the public in 2001 ("Erotic frescoes"). Nevertheless, Antonio Varon, of the Pompeii archeological heritage has pointed out that "There is no element that would make one think that the upper floor of the Subterranean Spa was a brothel" ("Erotic frescoes"). While eroticism is directly associated in Western culture with prostitution, this may have not been true of Pompeii. The writer discusses the debate over the evidence and gives background on Pompeii, its destruction and excavation. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
