Women and Slaves in Greco-Roman Culture - Differential Equations (Paperback, New Ed)

Women and Slaves in Greco-Roman Culture is the first book to critically explore how slaveholding and the subordination of women shaped ancient societies and reveals how women and slaves intersected with one another in both the cultural representations and the social realities of classical antiquity.
This erudite and well-documented book provokes questions about how we can hope to recapture the experience, and subjectivity, of ancient women and slaves, and addresses the ways in which femaleness and servility interacted with other forms of difference, such as class, gender and status. Women and Slaves in Greco-Roman Culture offers stimulating and frequently controversial insight into the complexities of gender and status in the ancient world.
