Lifetime Learning: Women of the Trojan War

  • Snow Library 67 Main Street Orleans, MA United States (map)

Peggy Kelleher leads this Zoom-only, three-part class. So often we concentrate on the heroes of the ancient world to the exclusion of the heroines involved in the vast sweep of history. Who were these women, and what were they doing while the men fought on the battlefield? Did they have any part to play in the “action” of war? The first session will look at “Women as Disrupters & Restorers: Helen & Penelope.”
