The women of Greek mythology were never just supporting characters — and this book proves it. Most books about Greek mythology tell the same stories: Zeus, Heracles, Odysseus. Rebel Women of Greek Mythology goes back to the original ancient sources — Homer, the Greek tragedians, Ovid — to recover the women at the heart of those myths. Not goddesses. Mortal women — subject to grief, betrayal and the indifference of the gods — whose courage, intelligence and defiance shaped the ancient world.Meet Antigone, who defied a king's law to honour her conscience. Medea, who refused powerlessness on anyone else's terms. Circe, who chose solitude over submission. Ariadne, who was abandoned and rose to immortality. Cassandra, cursed to be right. Atalanta, faster than any man who dared race her.Their stories raise questions that have never gone away: justice and resistance, loyalty and betrayal, power and its limits. Sophia Kallisti combines careful scholarship with an accessible narrative voice to illuminate what these women meant to the ancient Greeks — and why they still matter today. This is not simply a retelling. It is a rediscovery.Perfect for readers of Madeline Miller, Natalie Haynes and Bettany Hughes, and anyone fascinated by the women behind the world's greatest myths.©2026 iLosophy Press (P)2026 iLosophy Press
