AUTHOR

Thomsen, Ole

SUMMARY

Catullus' two wedding poems contain important statements regarding the poet's personality, Roman sexual morality, attitudes to love and marriage, and the practice and psychology of ancient religion. This work subjects the two poems to detailed analysis, and yields new insights into the ritual drama enacted, the mythical and erotic dimensions, and the depiction of male and female. The poems are shown to be more provocative than is usually recognised; marriage is conceived as eternal wedding night.Thomsen, Ole is the author of 'Ritual and Desire Catullus 61 & 62 & Other Ancient Documents on Wedding & Marriage' with ISBN 9788772882888 and ISBN 8772882883.
