Abstract
Solon, named archon, was also entrusted with the task of giving laws to Athens. Thanks to Plutarch we know some of these new laws and the difficulties encountered by Solon in making them accepted. Great was the discontent of the wealthier for the laws on heiresses, protected as women in marriage, and on wills, with which even a person who was not part of the family could be named an heir. On the other hand, the poor were dissatisfied with the laws that prohibited the sale of girls, daughters and sisters, and with some of those that regulated life in the countryside. In formulating some laws to protect women, sons and daughters, Solon could draw inspiration from the Code of Hammurabi.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
