  • Lastheneia (or Lasthenia) of Mantinea was one of Plato's female students. She was born in Mantinea, an ancient city in Arcadia, in the Peloponnese. She studied in the Academy of Plato dressed as a man. After the death of Plato she continued her studies with Speusippus, Plato's nephew. She is also said to have been the mistress of Speusippus. A papyrus fragment from Oxyrhynchus mentions an unidentified woman who studied under Plato, Speusippus, and then Menedemus of Eretria. The fragment goes on to explain that "in her teens she was lovely and full of unstudied grace. " This woman is probably Lastheneia or Axiothea of Phlius.
  • Lastheneia Mantineialainen oli antiikin kreikkalainen filosofi. Hän oli yksi kahdesta Platonin nimeltä tunnetusta naispuolisesta oppilaasta Akatemiassa, Aksiothea Fleiuslaisen ohella. Lastheneia oli kotoisin Mantineiasta, Arkadiasta Peloponnesoksen niemimaalta. Diogenes Laertios kertoo hänen opiskelleen Akatemiassa mieheksi pukeutuneena. Platonin kuoltua hän jatkoi opiskelua tämän seuraajan Speusippoksen oppilaana. Hänen kerrotaan olleen Speusippoksen rakastajatar. Iamblikhos kuitenkin kertoo Lastheneian olleen Pythagoraan oppilas. Oksyrhynkhoksesta löydetty papyruskatkelma mainitsee naisen, joka opiskeli Platonin, Speusippoksen ja Menedemoksen oppilaana, ja joka oli ”nuorena ihastuttava ja täynnä teeskentelemätöntä suloutta”. Naisen nimi ei ole säilynyt, mutta kyseessä on todennäköisesti Lastheneia tai Aksiothea.
