Hi Mark

I think you have identified one of the problems and one that it seems Dover acknowledged. But Davidson’s problems with Dover/Foucault are a) that they emphasise genital acts and fail to acknowledge the emotional dimension of the relationships they describe and b) that too much importance is attached to the behave of penetration and the consequent development of a reductive power/domination model. This is to coat both sides of the argument in primary colours but I think it captures the essence.

Dover’s study is of course ground breaking and of major importance. Nevertheless the way he talks about “homosexuality” is naturally situated in framework of views that seem rather dated. I am by no means up to date on the latest scholarship but Dover was writing in a time before “queer studies” became as mainstream as it is now. But perhaps thats a subject for a separate thread.

Here are the various reviews and replies which appeared in the Bryn Mawr Classical Review. There is obviously a lot of sniping going on but there is an acknowledgement that David

IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Zeus seizes the youth Ganymedes. The god holds a royal, lotus-tipped sceptre and a lightning-bolt rests by his side. The boy holds a rooster.

Ganymede was a Trojan prince in Greek mythology, known for his beauty. According to a myth, Zeus turned into an eagle and abducted Ganymede, bringing him to Mount Olympus. To compensate his father, Zeus offered him the best horses possible, and told him that his son would now be immortal and serve as a cupbearer for the gods, as well as a lover for him. Ganymedes was often portrayed as the god of homosexual love and as such appears as a playmate of the love-g

We're All A Little Bit Gay: Female Homoeroticism in Greek Art

Abstract

This study provides a close analysis of women in artwork from Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic Greece ( BC). Such images own traditionally been considered from exclusively heteronormative and androcentric perspectives. I employ queer and feminist theory in an attempt to provide a new understanding of the images present on these examples of ancient art which showcase women’s relationships. I examine a terracotta figure, a stamnos, a psykter, and a cup that display women interacting with one another. Their interactions demonstrate both homosocial and homoerotic relations. In an effort to reach a broader audience, I have curated a digital exhibit that displays each piece along with their individual analysis. The pieces and their reinterpretation create a space for women and lesbians of the ancient world to include their history told, as it has commonly been underacknowledged from the historical narrative, particularly in ancient Greek archaeology.
