Romen History Status Of Women
Question Option Two Generalizations on the status of women in the ancient world are always difficult, and never more so than in the case of Rome where theory and practice were often so far apart. Many Athenian men seem to have regarded their wives as at best essential inconveniences, but Roman men placed a very high value on marriage, home and the family, and this made quite a difference to society′s treatment of women. Did the value men placed on women affect the actual treatment of women in Roman society? Did Roman men ″talk the talk″ but fail to ″walk the walk′? In your response to this question, provide specific details on restrictions both legal and cultural placed on Roman women as well as the rights and privileges they experienced.
