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

Trade Review
"This is the first study of legal cases brought before Athenian courts where one of the litigants was a woman, and stands out for its comprehensiveness and accessibility, shedding new light on the lives of ancient Greek women and on our (oft-mistaken) perception of them." -Costas Panayotakis, University of Glasgow
