This volume explores how women in antiquity influenced cultural
spheres usually thought of as male, such as politics, economics,
science, law, and the arts.
The contributors look at examples from around the ancient world,
asking how far traditional definitions of culture describe male
spheres of activity, and examining to what extent these spheres
were actually created and perpetuated by women. It is shown that
women, through marriage and motherhood, tended to perpetuate
traditional male values, yet also made significant contributions of
their own.
Written by an international range of renowned academics, "Women's
Influence on Classical Civilization" provides a valuable wider
perspective on the roles and influence on women in the societies of
the Greek and Roman worlds.
