Paper Summary:
The paper describes how, in ancient Greece, the sexual division of labor was clearly defined primarily because of men's duty for military service. The paper further describes how the lives of men were spent in public, while women lived, for the most part, in the private domestic world of the home. The paper examines how, although women could not be active politically, they did participate in public life, had certain power, and were able to participate in the society. The paper concludes that Athenian law was very restrictive of women's rights.More papers on Homer's Valuation of Women:
