Aphrodite's famous ribbon known as the cestus, the irresistible love charm that she loaned to Hera in the Iliad, was, thanks to a fruitful early misreading, transformed by ancient, medieval, and Renaissance authors into a symbol of honorable feminine chastity. This book traces the history of this curious development from Homer to the end of the sixteenth century in France.
