Sobre este item
Cambridge, Massachusetts: The Belknap Press, at Harvard Univeristy. First American Edition. Hardcover. Good/Good. Large 8vo 9" - 10. A justly celebrated and sumptuously illustrated series, revealing in intimate detail what life was really like in the ancient world and up to through early Modern times, stretching from the vast panorama of the pagan Roman empire, to the glitz and glitter of 20th century art and literature. Intimate daily lives of citizens and slaves, kings and commoners, including concepts of manhood and sexuality to marriage and the family, chastity and contraception, techniques of childbirth, sexuality, religion, the meaning of virtue, and the separation of private and public spaces. A perfectly serviceable set of reference copies, complete in five volumes, Philippe Aries and Georges Duby serving as General Editors, and with individual contributions and volume editors, volume by volume. Nothing fancy, but complete and sturdy. Each bound in two-tone, paper over boards, cloth-backed bindings, of various colors. Forward cock to two spines, some smudging to bottom page-tips, moderate wear to two of the illustrated, pictorial dust wrappers, one being chipped and soiled a bit, much less to the others, and with previous owner's embossed stamps and inscriptions to several volumes. Hundreds and hundreds of fine black-and-white and full-color illustrations and photographs, printed on high-gloss paper, and with notes, index and bibliography to each volume.
