This book provides a comprehensive account of the Athenians'
conception of women during the classical period of the fifth and
fourth centuries BC. Though nothing remains that represents the
authentic voice of the women themselves, there is a wealth of
evidence showing how men sought to define women. By working through
a range of material, from the provisions of Athenian law through to
the representations of tragedy and comedy, the author builds up, in
the manner of an anthropological ethnography, a coherent and
integrated picture of the Athenians' notion of `woman'.
