Rome did not fear wine. It feared what wine could gather. When the cult of Bacchus spread through the Roman Republic, it was more than a religious movement. It was secret meetings. Night rituals.

The Bacchanalian scandal led to investigations, arrests, and one of the most dramatic religious suppressions in Roman history. Yet Bacchus survived. This audiobook traces the rise of Rome’s wine god from his Greek origins to his transformation within Roman society.

Epic poetry and tragic drama provide us with some of the richest ancient Greek depictions of women who are married to soldiers. In tales of the Trojan War, as told by Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, we encounter these mythical warriors' wives: Penelope, isolated but resourceful as she awaits the return of Odysseus after his lengthy absence; the war widow Andromache, enslaved and displaced from her homeland after the fall of Troy; the unfaithful and murderous Clytemnestra; and Tecmessa, a war captive who witnesses her partner's breakdown and suicide in the aftermath of battle. 

Many of the city-states of Ancient Greece gave the world a legacy rich in art, literature, poetry, philosophy, and science. But one such state distinguished itself by embracing something very different: a warrior lifestyle, a denial of luxury and wealth, and a focus on the collective rather than the individual. While most other Ancient Greek city-states have been forgotten, the name of that city remains in use in the English language today, meaning austere or rigorous: Spartan.

Qui n’a pas déjà son idée toute faite sur la situation des femmes de l’Antiquité grecque ? Les Athéniens – et les autres Grecs aussi, d’ailleurs – seraient forcément misogynes puisqu’ils sont réputés avoir exclu les femmes de leur cité. Ils les auraient reléguées dans l’espace privé de la maison. Dans cet entretien, l’historienne interroge cette affirmation car la recherche récente, tant en sciences sociales et en sciences de l’Antiquité permet de réévaluer l’attitude des sociétés antiques envers les femmes et, plus généralement, les rapports que les femmes et les hommes entretenaient.
