The idealised picture of classical antiquity most of us learned in school conveniently glosses over the most brutal parts of the history - and omits surprising stories of feminist resistance. For each story of misogynist violence, there's another that tells of solidarity and empowerment. And it's time we reclaimed them. Through short, pointed chapters, acclaimed classicist Helen Morales grapples with this legacy and charts a path forward.
