The Feminine Matrix of Sex and Gender in Classical Athens
Gilhuly, Kate (Wellesley College, Massachusetts)
In this book, Gilhuly explores the relationship between the prostitute, the wife, and the ritual performer in Athenian literature. Her original readings of familiar classical texts show how these three female roles provided a framework for assessing both masculine and feminine civic behaviour in classical Athens.
