The book I, Claudia: Women In Ancient Rome conveys a strong point about the differences between Roman women and Greek women as well as the differences in power. Also shows how the Roman women were not liberated meaning they weren't allowed to vote or hold public office. But they could own properties, inherit estates and run family businesses. They were able to go out freely to the marketplace, and theatres and bathe in the public baths. They were not restrained to their homes, unlike Greek women.
