As for whether she was a whore
She's the really horny Spartan who makes cock jokes the whole time.

I'm not physically fit, but I think I'd make a good Spartan woman.

And in one of my copies, she's Northern, so it's quite apt.

I'm not reading much at the mo, trying some Pushkin parallel translation and a spot of re-reading old favourites like Molesworth. And avoiding reading what I SHOULD be reading, like books on the Enlightenment and Bloody Cicero.
