Description

Explore the role of emotion in the legal history of the ancient Greek world. This book examines how anger functioned as a primary driver for justice and vengeance, often impacting both individual actors and their wider communities. Starting from the seventh century BCE, Greek communities developed formal court systems to place restrictions on vengeful behavior. Rather than eliminating anger, these systems allowed for revenge to be subject to public sanction and public use. This academic work provides a detailed look at how the transition from private vengeance to public legal processes shaped the social landscape of ancient Greece.

Key Features

This Bloomsbury publication examines how anger acted as a primary engine for justice in ancient Greek society.

The text covers the evolution of Greek legal systems from the seventh century BCE onwards.

Learn how Greek communities developed formal courts to manage and restrict vengeful behavior.

Understand how anger and revenge were transformed through public sanction and public use in the legal process.
