"This book is a collection of essays with commentary and evaluative bibliography on Plutarch, Advice to the Bride and Groom and Consolation to His Wife, along with Greek texts and English translations. It is designed to help readers understand and appreciate two important documents for the study of gender and the family in the Greco-Roman world and in later Western history." "This book therefore is written for both a scholarly and a general audience. The commentary, essays, and bibliography are designed for those who are reading the English translation. The Greek text, which is not otherwise easily accessible, is included for the convenience of readers who can read Greek."--BOOK JACKET.
