Description

Explore the complex historical relationship between slavery and social injustice in antiquity and late antiquity. Published by Oxford University Press, this scholarly work examines whether these conditions were viewed as natural, morally indifferent, or an inevitable consequence of the Fall. This book argues that definitive condemnations of slavery existed. It highlights how ascetics within Judaism, Christianity, and occasionally the Greco-Roman world viewed these practices as iniquitous and impious. This text provides a deep look into the role of philosophical asceticism and its impact on social justice perspectives throughout the early Christian period.
