  21. The hetaira A hetaira laces on her sandals (first …) Modest married women wore caps like that; possibly hetairai did so to imitate respectability or because there was a strong cultural preference for keeping women’s hair covered.

  24. Aspasia of Miletus What art or charming faculty did she have, to enable her to captivate the greatest statesmen, and to give the philosophers occasion to speak so much of her, and not to her disparagement? She was Milesian by birth, daughter of Axiochus … (Plutarch)

  25. Aspasia of Miletus Aspasia modeled herself on Thargelia … Thargelia was a great beauty, extremely charming, and at the same time sagacious; she had numerous suitors among the Greeks, and brought all who had to do with her over to the Persian interest, and by their means, being men of the greatest power and station, sowed the seeds of the Median faction up and down in several cities … (Plutarch)

  26. Aspasia of Miletus Aspasia, some say, was courted and caressed by Pericles on account of her knowledge and skill in politics. Socrates himself would sometimes go visit her, and some of his acquaintance with him, and those who frequented her company would carry their wives with them to listen to her. Her occupation was anything but creditable, her house being a home for young courtesans. Plutarch

  27. Aspasia of Miletus Lysicles, a man of low birth and character, by keeping Aspasia company after Pericles’ death, came to be chief man in Athens. And Plato tells us she had the reputation of being resorted to by many of the Athenians for instruction in the art of speaking. Pericles’ inclination for her seems, however, to have proceeded from the passion of love… He loved her with wonderful affection. Every day, both as he went out and as he came home, he kissed her. Plutarch
