Andromache tries to convince Melanus to let her and her young son go when Hermione orders for their deaths. The interactions between Andromache and Hermione highlight the difficulty of being women (in two roles: a wife and an enslaved concubine) in Ancient Greece.

What act of political courage have these people ever performed and who expects anything laudable from them?

quod enim umquam eorum in re publica forte factum exstitit? aut quis ab iis ullam rem laude dignam desiderat?
(Cic. Att. 164=8.14; trans. Shackleton Bailey)

Sort of new post on Humanist! (I forgot to post it here, which is a good argument for subscribing!) To teach academic integrity, we need to take a step back and make sure students understand integrity more broadly.

neither does hunger press upon right-judging men,
nor ruin, but in prosperity they share their beloved works.

οὐδέ ποτ᾽ ἰθυδίκῃσι μετ᾽ ἀνδράσι λιμὸς ὀπηδεῖ
οὐδ᾽ ἄτη, θαλίῃς δὲ μεμηλότα ἔργα νέμονται.

(Hes. Op. 225-231)

Archaeologists excavated, determined monument age, likely function and explained context and why a bit unusual in a way that can be easily understood.

That word 'stumped' it does not mean what the journalist says it does.
