Children in the Hellenistic World
Statues and Representation
Bobou offers a systematic analysis of ancient Greek statues of children from the sanctuaries, houses, and necropoleis of the Hellenistic world in order to understand their function and meaning. Looking at the literary and epigraphical evidence, she argues that these statues were important for transmitting civic values to future citizens.
