Description

Explore the lives of young people in antiquity with Jewish Childhood in the Roman World. This work from Cambridge University Press stands as the first full treatment of its kind, offering a deep look into how minors lived during this era. The book follows children into the many spaces they occupied, from where they learned and played to where they slept and died. By examining the interactions between children, their families, and strangers both inside and outside the home, this text provides a complete view of social dynamics. The author uses a wide range of historical sources, including rabbinic rules and surviving painted representations of children found in synagogues. This approach allows for a detailed study of daily life and broader theoretical questions regarding ancient history. To bring these historical accounts to life, Hagith Sivan includes four reconstructed autobiographies of specific children. This adds a personal dimension to the scholarly research, making it a valuable resource for students and historians interested in the ancient Roman world and Jewish history.
