Violence against women is very present in the literary manifestations of antiquity. This violence, a product of an androcentric society, patriarchal and misogynist society, appears normalised, minimised and concealed, and is even justified by its humorous character or by its humorous nature or because it is the driving force of the literary plot. In the five chapters of this book analyse the different forms of gender-based or sexual violence in Greco-Latin theatre, and some of its theatre and some of its contemporary readings, through novel methodologies, which prove the topicality of a problem that is far from being the current relevance of a problem that is far from being eradicated.
