Dr. Carla Ionescu joins us again, this time to talk about Spartan women! The women of Sparta were unique in the Ancient Greek world for the level of freedom and power that they enjoyed. Renown for their athletic skill and beauty, they were also reviled by some Greek writers for their learning, economic wealth and open sexuality.
Drawing on the groundbreaking work of Dr. Sarah Pomeroy, Dr. Ionescu joins Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden to discuss these amazing women.
