Jeffrey Beneker, "Eros and the Fall of Mark Antony", in The Passionate Statesman: Eros and Politics in Plutarch's Lives. Oxford: 2012.
Karin Blomqvist, "From Olympias to Aretaphila: Women in Politics in Plutarch", in Plutarch and his Intellectual World, ed. J.Mossman. Duckworth: 1997.
Judith Hallett, "Fulvia: The Representation of an Elite Roman Warrior Woman", in Women & War in Antiquity, eds. J. Fabre-Serris and A. Keith. Johns Hopkins: 2015.
*Some relevant election-related gender and leadership piece. I don't want to commit to one now because I'm sure this cycle won't stop producing more material, and I want to pick something as topical as possible. One example: Jill Lepore's "The Sovereignty of Women".
