Why Women Should Neither See nor Be Seen

Notes

1. 157.1Οὔτε ὁρᾶν οὔτε ὁρᾶσθαι — These infinitives are used independently to express command or duty (absolute infinitive), with the accusative γυναῖκα serving as their subject.
2. 157.1καὶ ταῦτα — An idiomatic expression meaning "and that too" or "and especially," modifying the subsequent accusative participle phrase ἐξησκημένην...
3. 157.1ἐπίσταται — The subject is third-person singular feminine (γυνή), understood from the preceding accusative γυναῖκα. It means "she knows how" or "she understands," taking ἀμφότερα (both things, i.e., seeing and being seen) as its object, directed "towards what is not proper" (πρὸς ἃ μὴ δεῖ).
