The corpus lists 1131 women fulfilling such criteria. The Greek texts are accompanied by lemmata, English translations and relevant commentaries. Based on the collected evidence, the authors analyse the phenomenon of honorific inscriptions for women as an important symptom of change of citizen mentality. Pointing to the political context in which such honours were bestowed, the phrasing of the texts, character of praiseworthy actions, and the fact that these honours were carved in stone and set up in conspicuous places in cities all reflect what the male part of the city populace thought about women in general and their presence in public spaces in particular. The book is a helpful resource for all those interested in ancient history, social history, and gender studies. 650 0 $a Inscriptions, Greek. 650 0 $a Women $z Greece $x History. 651 0 $a Greece $x Social conditions $y To 146 B.C. 650 7 $a Inscriptions, Greek. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00973878 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176568 651 7 $a Greece. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208380 648 7 $a To 146 B.C. $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Stebnicka, Krystyna, $e author. 700 1 $a Wolicki, Aleksander, $e author. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014904.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220902015613.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E8C8F8CE477411EC81CA9FE82DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
