Deborah Kamen is an associate professor of classics at the University of Washington and the author of Status in Classical Athens.
"Throughout, Kamen provides good overviews of existing debates,
making the book a useful primer on how scholarship has approached
various questions relating to this vast topic before; furthermore,
she succeeds in her aim to provide a starting point for further
research."--Polis: The Journal for Ancient Greek and Roman
Political Thought
"[A] fresh, concise book. . . . K. opens up a huge number of
avenues of interest and further research in this rich book, and I
am glad to have it on my bookshelves."--The Classical Review
"Insults in Classical Athens examines a decidedly understudied
subject that is vast and multifaceted, successfully introducing the

necessary and important. Overall, this is a thoughtful and learned
