Gorgo: A Romance of Old Athens is a historical fiction novel written by Charles Kelsey Gaines and published in 1903. The story is set in ancient Athens during the fifth century BCE and follows the life of Gorgo, a young woman who is determined to break free from the traditional roles and expectations of women in her society. Gorgo's father is a wealthy and influential politician who wants her to marry a man of his choosing and settle into a life of domesticity. However, Gorgo has other plans. She is fascinated by philosophy and politics and dreams of becoming a respected member of Athenian society in her own right. As Gorgo navigates the complexities of Athenian politics and society, she becomes involved in a love triangle with two very different men. One is a wealthy and powerful politician who offers her security and status, while the other is a young philosopher who shares her passion for knowledge and intellectual pursuits. Throughout the novel, Gorgo struggles to balance her desire for independence with her obligations to her family and her society. She faces numerous challenges, including betrayal, political intrigue, and the threat of war. Gorgo: A Romance of Old Athens is a vivid and engaging portrait of life in ancient Greece, offering readers a glimpse into the world of politics, philosophy, and romance in one of the most fascinating periods of human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
