Now in its fourth edition, this highly acclaimed sourcebook
examines the public and private lives and legal status of Greek and
Roman women. The texts represent women of all social classes, from
public figures remembered for their deeds (or misdeeds), to
priestesses, poets, and intellectuals, to working women, such as
musicians, wet nurses, and prostitutes, to homemakers. The editors
have selected texts from hard-to-find sources, such as
inscriptions, papyri, and medical treatises, many of which have not
previously been translated into English. The resulting compilation
is both an invaluable aid to research and a clear guide through
this complex subject. Building on the third edition's appendix of
updates, the fourth adds many new and unusual texts and images, as
well as such student-friendly features as a map and chapter
overviews. Many notes and explanations have been revised with the
non-classicist in mind.
