Thanks Erin! I think secondary scholarship separates them primarily because a majority only want to focus on one and if one were intending to tell a mere history of one they would not necessarily write of the other as their stories did not directly cross.

I love how you intersect these women’s gender with their ethnicity. It makes for a nuanced and complex conversation…and of course I am a fan of you trying to pull out women’s voices (as much as possible) from the original text!
It’s interesting that Agrippina and Boudica were compared with one another by ancient authors. Do you have any ideas as to why secondary scholars would have started to analyze these women separately from one another?

I enjoyed the video and becoming aware of this topic. Congrats Morgan!
