Summary:
Women in Greek epic are treated as objects, yet they also use objects to negotiate their own agency. This volume shines new light on the 'Iliad' and 'Odyssey', combining Gender Theory and New Materialisms to decentre the male subject and put centre stage not only the woman as object but also the agency of women and objects.
