Politicus
Xanthippe
500 BC - 400 BC
Xanthippe
Xanthippe (wat eigenlijk “Blonde Merrie” betekent) was de (waarschijnlijk) tweede echtgenote van de filosoof Socrates. Ze wordt een paar keer vermeld in het werk van Plato en Xenophon. Er zijn bepaalde aanwijzingen dat zij Socrates’ tweede vrouw was. Hij is met haar wellicht op latere leeftijd gehuwd, want de drie kinderen uit het huwelijk waren nog niet volwassen toen hun vader op 70-jarige leeftijd stierf. Lees meer op Wikipedia
Her biography is available in 40 different languages on Wikipedia. Xanthippe is the 681st most popular politicus (down from 574th in 2024), the 59th most popular biography from Greece and the 16th most popular Greek Politicus.
Xanthippe is most famous for being the wife of Socrates. She is often depicted as a shrewish, nagging woman who was constantly berating her husband.
