We're (finally) finishing with Aristophanes' Thesmophoriazusae and all I can say is: I'm sorry. Please stay tuned for Friday's conversation episode, it helps immensely. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!
CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
Sources: Aristophanes' Thesmophoriasuzae/Women at the Thesmophoria, translations by Stephen Halliwell and George Theodoridis; The Thesmophoria entry from the Hellenic Museum; Aristophanes by James Robson; Aristophanes by Carlo Ferdinando Russo; Goddesses, Whores, Wives, and Slaves: Women in Classical Antiquity by Sarah B.
