Ancient Greek Love Magic
Christopher A. Faraone
Surveying and analyzing various texts and artifacts, Faraone reveals two distinct types of love magic: the curselike charms used primarily by men to torture unwilling women until they surrender sexually; and the binding spells and debilitating potions generally used by women to sedate angry or philandering husbands and make them more affectionate.
