The essay is divided into two parts. The first part is a biography of Aspasia placed within a broad historical and cultural setting. The second part is devoted to knowledge of Aspasia, who founded in the house she shared with Pericles a school for women, which also demanded access to important intellectuals and philosophers, like Socrates and Senofonte. This wise woman in the two dialogues is presented in the guise of a teacher of economics, which she founded, and erotic art.
The book includes in appendix a chronological table.
