The pollution theme appears in tragedies, historical texts, and political oratory. Purity is a constant concern in ritual texts, and Greeks underwent many small purifications in their everyday lives. Certain archaic religious\u003cbr\u003emovements even made purification the path to felicity in the afterlife. First published in 1983, \u003cem\u003eMiasma\u003c\/em\u003e is the first work in English to treat this theme in detail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Parker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarendon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.46h x 5.46w x 1.02d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198147428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Parker\u003c\/strong\u003e is Fellow and Tutor in Greek and Latin Languages and Literature at Oriel College, Oxford.
