520 _a"Although women played little or no public role in ancient Greece, they make prominent apperances in art and drama, and in legal documents of the period. Not much of our evidence is first-hand - Sappho is the only female writer of antiquity much of whose work survives. However, the sources can tell us a great deal about how women lived, how they were regarded by men, and the effects on them of political and cultural changes over the centuries. Thus Sue Blundell is able to offer a fresh look at women in the ancient world, and shed light on the cultural dynamics of a male-dominated society."--
