She was accomplished courtesan, educated and trained in the art of conversation and entertainment, and may have met Pericles at symposium. Not permitted to marry an Athenian citizen (ironically, because of legislation that Pericles, himself, had enacted shortly before Aspasia arrived), she came to live with him as his concubine after Pericles divorced his wife (c.445 BC, if not earlier) and bore him a child of the same name.]]> 2019-03-16 00:48:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/341957521 Famous quotes Aspasia said aaguada1 https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/342648751 “Unless you believe there are no better men or finer woman on Earth you will certainly crave for what you consider as the best. Meaning, you want to be the husband of the very best of wives, and that she be wants to marry the most exemplary man."-- Aspasia of Miletus

(- I say this means that the husband wants to marry the best wife he has found.-)]]> 2019-03-19 00:07:58 UTC https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/342648751 Fun Fact of Aspasia aaguada1 https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/343583607 - Her name means “greeting with affection” or “welcome” and it has been suggested that `Aspasia’ was not her real name but, rather, a “professional” name as she worked as a hetaira, a high-class paid companion. She operated a salon (which her critics called a `brothel’) and a girl’s school (also cited by her detractors as either a brothel or a house in which she secured young girls for Pericles’ pleasure).]]> 2019-03-21 00:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/343583607 Works Cited aaguada1 https://padlet.com/aaguada1/2vp9biaxy2rf/wish/343951671 -( 3 times I used this citation)- “Aspasia of Miletus .” Aspasia, penelope.uchicago.edu/~grout/encyclopaedia_Romana/greece/hetairai/aspasia.html.
