ARE 1993 Soft Cover New Excellent New Book. An original and pioneering study of the step-by-step development of the law of hospitality--an ethical concept that played an important humanizing role in antiquity and one with which the historian Livy was particularly pre-occupied. Bolchazy's thesis, resulting from comparative studies of ancient and modern primitive societies and of classical mythology and literature, is a significant contribution to the fields of ethics, history of religion, and Livian studies. 200pp.
