From flowers and perfumes to urban sanitation and personal hygiene, smell has played a critical role in western history in evaluating the moral fibre of bodies, cities and spaces. Greek and Roman writers and thinkers lost no opportunity to connect the smells that bombarded their senses and the social, political and moral status of the individuals and environments that they encountered. The cultural study of smell has largely focused on pollution, transgression and propriety, but the olfactory sense came into play in a wide range of activities and symbols. The first comprehensive introduction to the role of smell in the history, literature and society of classical antiquity, "Smell and the Ancient Senses" examines the ways in which the olfactory sense contributed to our perceptions of bodies, environments, behaviour and morality.
