This book delves into the historical significance of the 'Lex Oppia, ' a Roman law enacted in 215 BCE that restricted women's access to luxury goods and elaborate fashion. Authored by Johann Wilhelm Hoffmann and J. C. Steinfeld, the work offers a detailed analysis of the law's origins, its social and economic impact on Roman society, and the debates surrounding its eventual repeal. Through careful examination of primary sources and historical context, the authors shed light on the motivations behind the 'Lex Oppia' and its implications for understanding gender roles and social hierarchies in ancient Rome. This book provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between law, culture, and society in the Roman Republic and its enduring relevance to discussions of sumptuary laws and gender equality.
