Dangerous Women of Rome - Laudatio Turiae

In today's episode we discuss an enigmatic funerary inscription, from a husband to a wife, that has been in the process recovery in bits and pieces throughout Italy. It tells an epic, harrowing tale of love, selfless acts and heroics. Ironically, we don't know the identities of the husband and wife. We're talking about just how dangerous this woman was,, and we're also talking about educated guesses from the pro's on identities. To read the full translated text of this remarkable ancient love letter and historical document, you can explore the Laudatio funebris quae dicitur Turiae English translation [https://droitromain.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/Anglica/Laudatio_Turiae_Wistrand.htm] provided by the Université Grenoble Alpes. For a deeper academic breakdown of the text, historical context, and the turbulent era in which it was written, refer to the Escholars Open Access Study [https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2123r4bs].
