Gender and Expression

To what extent did the diverse practice of gender shape the societies of ancient Greece and Rome? How has the subject of gender in classical antiquity been approached in the past? Why have perspectives changed?

This edition of Achilles' Reel attempts to explore a wide range of historical, cultural, religious and literary evidence to consider beliefs about gender and sexuality across ancient Greece and Rome. We hope you enjoy!
