"If love's your thing, try Katherine Wasdin's Eros at Dusk, which puts Graeco-Latin wedding poems and love poetry between the same covers." -- Christopher Whitton, University of Cambridge "Wasdin's beautifully written book expertly guides readers through the complexities of Greek and Roman nuptial and erotic poetry and will delight established scholars and students alike. Her learned and witty approach to the texts provides crucial reconsiderations of long-accepted, traditional assignments of genre to these ancient yet perennially fascinating poems." --Karen Klaiber Hersch, Temple University "In this wide-ranging and stimulating examination of the many shared elements of marital and erotic verse, Katherine Wasdin challenges the long-standing distinctions between the two modes and argues for a dialogic relation between them. This book will be useful to anyone interested in love poetry and in expressions for love in many genres beyond." -Sharon L. James, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
