Did you notice him through the dim haze of the cantina? Or in the crush of bodies on Latin night at the local club? Maybe on a backpacking trip South of the border, during a night of civil unrest? You remember a face stark as Zapata or Ricardo Montalban, the trace of a moustache, dark-coiled eyes, a saint's smile of desire. Will he take you like Villa to the other side of love, or are Latin men not the romantics they are cracked up to be? How real is that machismo? This book explores the myth and the reality of the Latin Lover. This collection of true stories captures every mariachi trumpet of elation or bandeneon cry of misery stories in which bodies, culture and language collide.

It is often claimed that the kind of love that is variously deemed 'romantic' or 'true' did not exist in antiquity. Yet, ancient literature abounds with stories that seem to adhere precisely to this kind of love. This volume focuses on such literature and the concepts of love it espouses. The volume differs from and challenges much existing classical scholarship which has traditionally privileged the theme of sex over love and prose-genres over those of poetry. By conversely focusing on love and poetry, the present volume freshly explores central poets in ancient literature, such Homer, Sappho, Terence, Catullus, Virgil, Horace and Ovid, alongside less canonized, such as the anonymous poet of The Lament for Bion, Philodemus and Sulpicia. The chapters, which are written by world-leading as well as younger scholars, reveal that Greek and Latin concepts of love seem interconnected, that such love is as relevant for hetero- as homoerotic couples, and that such ideas of love follow the mainstream of poetry throughout antiquity. In addition to the general reader interested in the history of love, this volume is relevant for students and scholars of the ancient world and the poetic tradition.
