Experiencing Pain in Imperial Greek Culture

Experiencing Pain in Imperial Greek Culture

Descriere

Traditional accounts of ancient pain tend to focus either on philosophical or medical theories of pain or on Christian notions of suffering: this volume moves beyond these approaches to argue that pain in Imperial Greek culture was not a narrow physiological perception but must be understood within its broad personal, social, and emotional context.
