Sarah Pomeroy has consulted archaeological data, documents, historical writing, and the literature of the high civilization of Greece and Rome with minute attention. Her book is free of anachronistic speculation about what women must have felt, speculation projected back from our age to the past. She does not draw large conclusions or form sweeping generalizations, but the details she has gathered here speak for themselves and do not readily leave the mind. Included are photographs, endnotes, a bibliography, and an index. Wide ranging examination of the evidence for the various roles and perceptions of women in Greek and Roman society. 265p. plates.bibliography.index. Book. Book Condition: Fine.
