Reviews

The fictional letter is one of the literary expressions in which women’s voices are most clearly expressed in ancient Greek literature. This book is an efficient guide to discover the mechanisms of ventriloquisation put into practice by the rhetors of the imperial period, all of them male writers, in order to give a personal and authentic voice to different groups of women in classical Antiquity. -- Rafael J. Gallé Cejudo, Professor of Greek Philology, University of Cádiz, Spain
