Shoes, Slippers, and Sandals: Feet and Footwear in Classical Antiquity
Editat de Sadie Pickup, Sally Waiteen Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 oct 2018
Ancient dress and adornment have received significant consideration in recent scholarship, though, strikingly, feet and footwear have featured relatively little in this discussion. This volume aims to rectify this imbalance through its fifteen chapters covering a wide range of aspects associated with feet and footwear in classical antiquity. Contributions are grouped under four headings: ‘Envisaging footwear’, ‘Following footprints’, ‘One from a pair’ and ‘Between representation and reality’, reflecting the broad range and interdisciplinary nature of the approaches undertaken.

Recenzii
"This innovative volume is a welcome addition to studies on ancient dress, an exciting field of growing importance. The editors have collected a number of excellent essays on the significance of feet and footwear in archaeological, art historical and literary contexts from ancient Greece and Rome, on such diverse topics as footwear at the symposium, shoemakers in ancient society, monosandalism, shoes on Attic vases, brooches in the shape of shoes from Roman Britain, and podiatric shoes from Vindolanda. A fresh look at the evidence for ancient shoes, this important new book will be invaluable for historians of clothing, art, and social history, as well as those interested in the history of dress more generally."

"The chapter bibliographies in this volume are a major contribution to the field, and the abundance of reference material (both material culture and literary works) will greatly enrich future studies ... [this volume is] informative, innovative, and competently done. Drawing upon the latest modern studies, and with preceptive use of ancient sources, these scholars offer numerous insights which invite their readers onto scholarly ground that has until recently been mostly untrodden."
