The Meditation Of Women In Antiquity Is A Well-established Area Of Research In The Classics.
In The Erotics Of Domination, Ellen Greene Reexamines Long-held Scholarly Attitudes Concerning The Representation Of Male Sexual Desire And Female Subjection I The Latin Love Poetry Of Catullus, Propertius, And Ovid.
Examibing First-person Poetic Personae That Have Often Been Romanticized By Critics, Greene Finds Tha5 Male Sexuality Is Consistently Threatened As Moral Resolve Ad Social Status Are Undermined By Desires That Render Men Passively "womanish": Pow3rless And Emotional.
"whereas The Catullan Lover Appears To Struggle Against His Own 'femniization,' The Roman Elegiac Poefss -- Particularly Propertius And Ovid -- Proclaim In Thejr Poems A Primitively Unconventional Philosophy Of Life Through Their Apparently Deliberate Inverrsion Of Conventional Sex Roles -- In Which Women Are Portrayed As Dominant And Mem As Subservient.
Roman Elegiac Poetry Is Predicated Entirely On Clearly Defined Roles For The Speaker And His Mistress.
That Servitude, At Least Npminally, Accords The Lover's Mistress Complete Domination And Control Over Him.
