Focusing on the role of aristocratic women in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the book explores how these figures exemplify Plato's concept of the female Guardian. Jane Duran presents a compelling argument that these women not only fit the philosophical ideal but also challenge traditional notions of gender and power during their time. Through historical analysis, the work highlights their significance in the context of Guardianship, expanding the understanding of Plato's ideas in a new and relevant way.
