Examining the remarkable life of Cornelia, famed as the epitome
of virtue, fidelity and intelligence, Suzanne Dixon presents an
in-depth study of the woman who perhaps represented the ideal of
the Roman matrona more than any other.
Studying her life during a period of political turmoil, Dixon
examines Cornelia's attributes: daughter of Scipio Africanus, wife
of an aristocrat, and mother of the Gracchi; and how these enabled
her to move in high echelons of society.
For students and scholars of classical studies and Roman
history, this book will give students a glimpse into the life of
Cornelia, and of the influence she had on the period.
