History: earliest times to present day

Hardcover. A much-needed analysis of how women behaved in Greek society, how they were regarded, and the restrictions imposed on their actions. Given that ancient Greece was very much a man's world, most books on Greek society still tend to focus on men. Women had significant roles to play in Greek society and culture-this book illuminates those roles. Num Pages: 240 pages, 36 black and white illustrations and one map. BIC Classification: 1QDAG; 3D; HBJD; HBLA; JFSJ1. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 234 x 156 x 22. Weight in Grams: 549.
