Treatment of Women in Ancient Literature

Through the use of sexual appeal, women are always portrayed as attractive men. Therefore, those who remain chaste are more respected than those who emphasize sexual desire. Wolco wrote: "The Greeks believe that women can not use sexual charisma, the consequence is whether the women will not do anything to deliberately cause worries, misery It will be a result "(39). In Homer 's epic, I see the role that Odysseus is controlled by Calypso and Shilie for sexual appeal. He returned home after 20 years and met with his wife Penelope. .

The next sexual problem. The classic classical literature is certainly written by men and there are only a few women. Ancient civilization follows a specific division of labor and the successful elite expects to write down and discuss the problem - these eternal questions - and to announce these questions for future generations and intellectual activities . This is not to say that there is no strong woman, or that it does not affect men's wisdom. Socrates was turned into philosophy by female Diotima, and he was impressed with the insights of Aspasia. Cleopatra has almost defeated the Romans. I always wanted to get a translation of Sappho. I think it is the same as Ovid and Catullus I have read up to now.

The treatment of women has become a problem for centuries. In ancient civilization, women were thought of as underlying creatures. In ancient Greece women had no social, political or economic importance. In the social aspect, women are regarded, respected and respected as male junior high schools. According to the culture of ancient Greece, women can not be self-sustained, they depend entirely on the life of men. The role of women in ancient Greek society is to lay birth, prepare meals, and take care of their families. However, one person fulfilled the "important" duty of Greek society. These responsibilities include political propaganda, fighting battle, and protecting families. In ancient Greece feminism was unheard of. Women live with fear of dialogue with men and do not dare to contradict social methods. Women are concerned about physical abuse, anger of the gods, and sometimes even death.

The cultural portrayal of women in ancient Greek myths is also a symbol and influence of the treatment and status of Greek women in society. Men are responsible and women have never been considered equivalent to men, even women of similar status. To a certain extent, this reality is due to the teaching taught through educational literature. If Xenophon's Oeconomicus is not a blatant country who wishes to isolate elite women from male members of the Greek family members, it is necessary to treat them in a non-personal way to shape the wife into a unique and accurate specification It strongly suggests. Hesiod's letter to Perse's in his work and day to day is not worth noting if he is not trying to lead Greeks to possess the property of agricultural technology. Hesiod's explanation of the collapse of Pandora as a human means to alert the man of the danger of allowing a woman to leave the isolation.
