A professor in the University of Waterloo’s Department of Classical Studies and the first woman to serve as the Dean of Arts, Dr. Sheila Ager argues that, when it comes to the status of women, the ancient world is not as far away as one might think. Starting with ancient Athens, she demonstrates that old prejudices and ancient discriminatory practices persist in the world’s societies and religions.
