This highly acclaimed collection of primary sources in translation provides a unique look into the public and private lives of Greek and Roman women. Women of all social classes are represented: from wet nurses, prostitutes, and gladiatrixes to poets, musicians, intellectuals, priestesses, and housewives. Source material vividly describes women's sentiments and circumstances through readings on love, bereavement, and friendship, as well as their legal status, property rights, breast cancer, female circumcision, and women's roles in ancient religions, including Christianity and pagan cults.Accessible and accurate translations are selected and arranged by two leading experts in the study of women in antiquity. The result is a user-friendly and comprehensive source book for this topic. Covering core themes and issues across both ancient Greece and Rome, a clear, continuous sense of the social role of women and attitudes towards them is presented. The fourth edition includes more student-friendly features, including chapter overviews, a glossary of people and places, a timeline, and additional images.
