Description

About the Author Bonnie MacLachlan is Professor of Classical Studies at the University of Western Ontario. Her published volumes include The Age of Grace: Charis in Early Greek Poetry (1993) and Virginity Revisited: The Autonomy of the Unpossessed Body, co-edited with Judith Fletcher (2007). Product Description This sourcebook includes a rich and accessible selection of Roman original sources in translation ranging from the Regal Period through Republican and Imperial Rome to the late Empire and the coming of Christianity. From Roman goddesses to mortal women, imperial women to slaves and prostitutes, the volume brings new perspectives to the study of Roman women's lives. Literary sources comprise works by Livy, Catullus, Ovid, Juvenal and many others. Suggestions for further reading, a general bibliography, and an index of ancient authors and works are also included. Review By superbly selecting, arranging, translating and contextualizing a wide array of literary and inscriptional sources, Bonnie MacLachlan has made a peerless contribution to the study and teaching of women's images and lived realities in ancient Rome. This magnum opus - with its testimony about women of all ages and social classes, from legendary times to late antiquity, and all corners of the Roman empire - deserves, in the words of the ancient Romans, ourmaximae gratulationes. -- Judith P. Hallett, University of Maryland, College Park, USA An introduction to Roman women well tailored for the beginner. Bonnie MacLachlan has chosen excerpts from landmark texts and integrated them, along with representative inscriptions, into a lucid narrative history of Rome, with new translations and basic bibliography. --Amy Richlin, Professor of Classics, University of California, USA
