Each chapter in this collection centers its examination of time around the concept of gender, highlighting the significance of time in treatises, genealogical lists, calendars, prophetic literature, ritual practices, and historical and poetic narratives from the Greco-Roman world. While many of the chapters initially introduce female characters, they all emphasize the profound connection between time and ancient categories of female and male identity. By drawing upon the insights of theorists who explore the encoded connections between time and gender within narrative tropes, plots, pronouns, images, or metaphors, the contributors unravel the intricate ways in which time and gender were intertwined in the symbolic realm of Greek and Roman thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNarratives of Time and Gender in Antiquity emerges as a profound and thought-provoking theoretical exploration of time and its profound relationship to gender in ancient texts. This work will captivate scholars and students alike who are engaged in the study of time in the ancient world or the exploration of gender in antiquity. Through its comprehensive analysis, it offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics that shaped the perception and interpretation of time in ancient societies, shedding light on the enduring legacies of these cultural expressions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 370g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032474861\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104753250554,"sku":"9781032474861","price":40.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_9e6429f8-7c11-4f5f-a3fb-35fbcce9c6b5.jpg?v=1675716253","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/narratives-of-time-and-gender-in-antiquity-9781032474861","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
