Gender, Domesticity, and the Age of Augustus: Inventing Private Life - Oxford Studies in Classical Literature and Gender Theory
Milnor, Kristina (Assistant Professor of Classics, Barnard College, Columbia University)
In the early Roman Empire, women's domestic roles were given new public prominence. Through an examination of early imperial representations of women's activities and responsibilities within the household, Kristina Milnor argues that this emphasis on private morality is actually a new way of understanding the nature of political life.
