Phryne of Thespiae - McClure - Bog

af McClure
Bag om Phryne of Thespiae

Although Phryne is considered the most famous of the many Greek courtesans who flocked to Athens during the fourth century BCE, until now there have been no modern attempts to reconstruct her life. Phryne of Thespiae offers an innovative biography that examines key moments of Phyrne's life that have been dismissed as male fantasies, arguing that many of them could have plausibly originated in historical events. The portrait that emerges is that of a powerful and socially consequential woman whose wealth and connections helped to shape the society in which she lived.
