The aim of this course is to bring students in a general knowledge about the women’s status within the family, social life and administration of the Greeks who greatly contributed to the cultural assets of the mankind, constituted the democracy and political thinking for the first time, and prioritized the individual; and of the Romans who built a great empire in Mediterranean and prioritized the state and the society i.e. the duties and responsibilities of the citizens towards the state.
Classical Age constitutes the essential founding bases of the modern intellectual values system, for this reason; there is a close relation between Antiquity and the Modern World. In this course, ancient Greek and Roman attitude towards women will be reviewed in order for a better understanding of the modern social gender and women topics.
