5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for undergraduates and graduates, June 19, 2000

This review is from: Women's Life in Greece and Rome: A Source Book in Translation (Paperback)
This collection of writings from the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome focus on women's lives. However, do not buy this thinking you are getting women's views, that is rare in the record. Well organized and well cited, it provides an excellent teaching aid to the professor and a quick reference to scholars and laypersons. It is best used in an introductory history class or a women's studies class. Could be difficult to understand without basic background materials.

This review is from: Women's Life in Greece and Rome: A Source Book in Translation (Paperback)
This is a magnificent book if you are looking to find out what men wrote about women in the ancient period. It's comprehensive and deals with just about every type of source one can imagine. I've happily used it in women's history course and ancient history courses for many years.
