Marginalised Populations in the Ancient Greek World by Carrie Lynn Sulosky Weaver Book PDF Summary

Studies of the ancient Greek world have typically focused on the life histories of elite males as the group that has made the most distinct mark on ancient Greek literature, art and material culture. As a result, the voices of foreigners, the physically impaired, the impoverished and the generally disenfranchised have been silent, which has substantially complicated the creation of a historical narrative of these marginalised groups. To address this lacuna, previous research has turned to the limited evidence found in literature and material culture to reconstruct societal attitudes toward disenfranchised peoples. This book departs from that approach by primarily considering the skeletal remains and burial contexts of the individuals themselves.

Women in the Law Courts of Classical Athens

Women in the Law Courts of Classical Athens by Konstantinos Kapparis

Konstantinos Kapparis challenges the traditional view that free women, citizen and metic, were excluded from the Athenian legal system.
