Free Love Paid Love: Expressions of Affection in Mykonos
Nowhere in Cycladic culture has love been defined in a singular all–encompassing manner. Forces of attraction, affection, connection, and relation were ascribed in a plurality of ways. Through symposia in Delos, the tax haven of antiquity, 17th–century transactions of love involving pirates, slaves, and Mykonians; naturist communities reliving sexual freedom in the 1960–70s and 21st–century tourists quest in search of love, free or paid; this book gathers fragments of expressions of affection across Mykonos island. Mykonos has long defined itself as a self–ruling place far away from realities lived elsewhere.
