Description

A study of key works in the Western literature of love from classical Rome to the late middle ages which focuses on the ideologically saturated discourse of love's labour contained in them, and thus explores them in the context of ancient and medieval theories of labour and leisure. Review "I am so truly amorous that I am always inquisitive with respect to those who can best relate how to know all the rules of love's craft."
