| Description: | A collection, translation, and study of poetry - male-authored, female-authored, and anonymous - created for women''s voices in ancient Greece By considering women's voices in performance, this book provides a fresh perspective on women's 'writing'. It shows that our understanding of femininity in ancient Greece can be expanded by going beyond poetry composed by women poets like Sappho to explore girls' and women's choral songs from the archaic period. |
