Authors

  • Carlos Espejo Muriel Universidad de Granada

Abstract

Author shows the main role of women in Magic, through differents love potions in ancient Greece and Rome. In this way, Medea, Circe, other mythical dinasties and literature examples took from Petronius and Apuleius give us such kind of information about Science, Chemistry and Magic, that underlines the fact women were involved. This situation offered women the possibility to react (although in an ephemeral way) against the omnipresent male world.
