Not sure what I expected reading fragmentary primary accounts of cases prosecuting women directly or proximally. There are major discrepancies between the treatment of citizens versus metics. There are prominent contradictions in Athenian ideologies of social norms, specifically within legal discourse, that somehow always benefit the men. Alas, all these accounts are from men… that’s always the problem isn’t it
