The editors and authors have produced an intellectual feast for readers with a lively and thought-provoking volume that is as wide-ranging in its topics as it is in the scholars contributing. From early career scholars to the most-seasoned veterans of the field, this volume shows the continued importance and power of feminist approaches to classical antiquity. --Rebecca Futo Kennedy, Denison University This volume, with its strong focus on feminist epistemology together with its wide range of methodologies and classical material, makes a powerful intervention in the elucidation of ancient philosophy and literature, while acting as a showcase for how exploration of the ancient world can contribute to contemporary debates. --Alison Sharrock, University of Manchester
