Belted Heroes and Bound Women: The Myth of the Homeric Warrior King - Greek Studies: Interdisciplinary Approaches
Michael J. Bennett
This work introduces a previously unrecognised Homeric theme of the "belted hero" and argues for its lasting historical, literary and archaeological significance. The hero fused king, warrior and athlete, and the belts served as visual emblems of power and for women as superior in love.
