The book explores the roles and influences of women during the tumultuous period of ancient Rome, specifically between the death of Julius Caesar and the fall of Nero. Ferrero delves into the complexities of women's lives, particularly the notable figures who played significant roles in shaping historical events and power dynamics within the Roman Empire. The opening of the work sets the stage by highlighting the rarity and impact of female figures in a predominantly male-dominated historical narrative. Ferrero introduces the idea that traditional historiography has often trivialized these women, crafting romanticized tales as opposed to revealing their significant, albeit often tragic, histories. He emphasizes the necessity of reconsidering these narratives to uncover a more nuanced understanding of women's contributions to Roman society and political life, indicating that their stories are both essential and rich with drama beyond mere legend or mythology.
