Abstract

This interdisciplinary study reconstructs ancient Greek dress practices in light of current dress theory. Although scholars have explored particular aspects of ancient Greek dress in the textual, visual, and archaeological record, this is the first full-length monograph on Greek dress to be published in English in over a century. It should find a broad readership among scholars and students of classics, archaeology, art history, dress, cultural studies, and gender studies.
