- This monograph (120,000) expands considerably the three years of my PhD research (adds new authors, removes some of the doctoral material). It is first major book-length study devoted to pain in antiquity. It combines material from a range of significant fields in ancient literature and modern theory. These include ancient medicine, including an author (Aretaeus of Cappadocia) who has only very rarely been discussed in English, rhetoric and moral philosophy, as well as the ancient Greek romances, and art-critical literature, and ethical tracts. Medcine, rhetoric, and the Greek romances all have substantial bibliographies in multiple languages which have been consulted.
