    The Constraints of Desire. The Anthropology of Sex and Gender in Ancient Greece. Routledge, New York / London, 1990. X,269p. Paperback. Signature and date on half title. Edges a bit yellowed. 'It seems to me that Winkler has (...) made a substantial contribution to Classical Studies - without in any way compromising his feminist principles - in a book which all Classicists, whatever their particular field of study, will find both useful and interesting. Winkler's commitment to uniting an interpretation of what is said about sex and gender with an understanding of how all such utterances are culturally constrained, consistently generates new and provocative readings even of much-discussed material. This exciting book will set the standard for debate in many areas of study and will undoubtedly stimulate a great deal of discussion in the future.' (A.M. KEITH in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 02.01.18). (Antiquarian)  (approx. delivery time: undeliverable) ISBN: 9780415901239
