Through a range of historical examples, from the classical world to modern times, Beard explores how history has treated powerful women. She examines the cultural roots of misogyny, the societal expectations of women's relationships with power, and the ways in which powerful women resist being confined to male stereotypes. In the aftermath of the #metoo movement, Beard reflects on the progress made in these discussions and how they intersect with issues of rape and consent. She challenges the narratives men use to justify their actions and advocates for change. Drawing from ancient and contemporary sources, Beard presents a compelling argument for immediate action. Her book, SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome, showcases her expertise in historical analysis and her ability to engage readers on important social issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 116g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 111 x 178 x 12 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781788160612                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Main                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Professor Mary Beard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44101608636666,"sku":"9781788160612","price":6.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/cf4867a039acc4cc300dbc4b4ec4076b.jpg?v=1626241692","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/women-power-a-manifesto","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
