This book sometimes presents only some aspects of the stories/myths and there are many versions of them. Also, presents ideas about love of some of the most famous greek philosophers.
This book importantly points out there are lots of depictions that show the courtesans in orgies were often being forced and reluctant. It's not some idealised open and respectful expression but more like institutionalised rape... as is ultimately always the reality of prostitution.
Needs more Alkibiades.
