useful book on women in Greek and Roman Egypt,
By
This review is from: Women and Society in Greek and Roman Egypt: A Sourcebook (Paperback)
The book offers much information about the role and importance of women in ancient Greek and Roman Egypt. The chapters cover royalty, religion, family, law, economy, childhood, education and marriage. The views presented in the scholarly essays are backed up by cited evidence in contracts, letters and other surviving records. It is a very useful book for the study of women.

A dame is a dame,
By A Customer
This review is from: Women and Society in Greek and Roman Egypt: A Sourcebook (Paperback)
This book is a fascinating compendium of women in Greek and Roman Egypt. It's easy to read and full of detail about the women who lived in these worlds. When you read about the personal lives, you are struck by the fact that not that much has changed: women back then met a guy, got married, had kids, and then they died. Sound familiar? And then you can't help but ask, is that all there is? There are helpful maps and a glossary.
