Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book shares the letters of two elite Roman women during the tumultuous period of the third century C.E. Their words provide a unique glimpse into the lives of women in power during the Roman Empire. Though both are part of the highest echelons of Roman society, their perspectives are distinct; one was a staunch pagan devoted to her duty and reputation, the other a recent convert to Christianity. Their letters explore the religious conflicts, political turmoil, and societal expectations that shaped the Roman world during this time. The author provides historical context and insight into the private and public roles played by privileged Roman women during a pivotal moment in history.
