Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the concepts of right and left in Roman literature from their humble physical qualities to their complex metaphorical associations. At all events, we find men using their right hands in preference to their left, which would then be associated with the unfavorable and unlucky with the right becoming synonymous with the favorable and lucky. This association was transferred to the right and left in general, as well as to the right side and the left side of the body. The book examines these ideas as they occur in the literature, revealing the fascinating development of this concept among the Romans, as well as its significance in their culture.
