| Résumé : | During the last centuries of the Roman Empire, the prevailing ideal of feminine virtue was radically transformed: the pure but fertile heroines of Greek and Roman romance were replaced by a Christian heroine who ardently refused the marriage bed. How this new concept and figure of purity is connected with—indeed, how it abetted—social and religious change is the subject of Kate Cooper’s lively book. |
