Description

Discover a fresh perspective on ancient history with Childhood, Class and Kin in the Roman World. Most surviving texts from the Roman period were written by elite adult men, making it hard to hear the voices of those on the margins. This volume by Routledge redresses that imbalance by looking at the lives of children, women, and slaves. This international collection of expert contributors moves beyond standard literary texts to examine a wide range of evidence. By analyzing inscriptions, burial data, domestic architecture, sculpture, and the law, the book provides a more complete picture of Roman society. It even explores Christian and dream-interpretation literature to build a fuller narrative. Readers will gain insights into essential social topics, including child exposure and abandonment, the use of children in imperial propaganda, and the reconstruction of lower-class families. This book is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the complex social structures and family dynamics of the Roman world through a diverse lens.
