Beschreibung:
Rosa Reuthner records in her book a broad range of life, talent, virtuosity and skill: Greek women were in comedies as market women, on vase paintings climbing fruit trees to pick fruit. In a world without supermarkets or freezers they shared the food stocks, making them durable and prepared with food. They handed down orally healing knowledge that was vital to their time. They advised other women with questions about pregnancy and contraception and provided assistance during childbirth. This work brings the everyday life of ancient Greek women from the shadows of the past
