Abstract

AbstractIn a passage from Apollodorus’ Against Neaera ([Dem.] 59.113), the manuscripts have unanimously transmitted the feminine plural genitive of ‘citizen’, πολιτίδων.

Emphasizing the importance of female citizenship in Athens, this note proposes restoring the manuscript reading of the text.
