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.]]> 2019-03-20 03:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amurillo10/wfs5oayjw0ut/wish/343159526 What was known for Aspasia? amurillo10 https://padlet.com/amurillo10/wfs5oayjw0ut/wish/343478591 Aspasia of Miletus is best known as the consort and close companion of the great Athenian statesman Pericles.
