From Hypatia's tragic end in 415 CE to her portrayal in art and literature centuries later. We'll unravel how a middle-aged philosopher turned into a romanticized icon, spotlighting Charles Mitchell's 1885 painting and the Victorian novel that inspired it—making Hypatia into a symbol for various causes through the ages.
