Observations and context

Lyrical poetess, creator of the Telesillean meter and fighting leader against Cleomenes I in the Battle of Sepeia; she claimed equality and female public participation in the city of Argos.    

The figure and work of Telesilla links with the female members of the lyrical movement in Continental Greece: Myrtis, Praxilla of Sicyon, Corinna of Tanagra, Erinna of Telos, Anyte, Sappho of Lesbos, Moero and Nossis.   

Description

To learn about the origin of the Hybristika festival, commemorating Telesilla's leadership in the Battle of Sepeia, in which women dress as men and men as women for a day, and to relate them to the Fiestas of Santa Águeda, in which, for a day, the command of the Castilian cities is in the hands of women, and men take over the domestic sphere.
