Many of the chapters begin with female characters, but all of them emphasize how and why time is an integral component of ancient categories of female and male. Relying on theorists who offer ways to explore the connections between time and gender encoded in narrative tropes, plots, pronouns, images or metaphors, the contributors tease out how time and gender were intertwined in the symbolic register of Greek and Roman thought. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarratives of Time and Gender in Antiquity provides a rich and provocative theoretical analysis of time--and its relationship to gender--in ancient texts. It will be of interest to anyone working on time in the ancient world, or students of gender in antiquity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEsther Eidinow\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Ancient History at the University of Bristol, UK.
