Sparta e Atene
Honor — shame culture
The concepts of “guilt” and “shame” cultures were adopted by the social anthropologist Ruth Benedict, member of a group charged by the US Government during World War II to study “Culture at Distance” in order to better understand the mentality and the mores of peoples with whom the US were at war, particularly the Germans and Japanese.

Athenian women are the only women in Greece whose life can be reconstructed with a certain amount of completeness.
Friendship, Love, and Marriage
Friendship, love, and marriage are three different types of personal relationship.

The Androgynous and Bisexuality in Ancient Legal Codes
The name derives from his parentage: 'Hermaphroditus', son of Hermes and Aphrodite. His place of birth remains unknown, but we know where he spent his first years of life: the woods surrounding Mount Ida in Phrygia where he was brought up by the Nymphs.

The social organization that they describe wa…

"Neaniskoi". Classi di età e passaggi di status nel diritto ateniese
Eva Cantarella, «Neaniskoi». Classi di età e passaggi di «status» nel diritto ateniese, p. 37-51. L'analisi della terminologia greca delle età della vita (da Omero ai lessicografi alessandrini) dimostra che il termine neaniskos, all'interno di questa, aveva una collocazione del tutto particolare. Esso indicava infatti un gruppo di giovani che andava dai 16-17 ai 25-30 anni, vale a dire comprendeva una parte dei minorenni (quelli più vicini alla m…
