On this week's front table, explore obstetrics and feminine resistance during the Roman Empire, gain a radical new understanding of money, and get lost in the haze of a transcendent, menacing festival. Then, go back to the early days of a pioneering theorist, experience a masterwork of Indian poetry, rifle through a notable literary correspondence, and resurface a long-buried river and narrative of class and labor.
