Description

Explore a unique perspective on ancient social dynamics with Romans and Blacks by Routledge. This academic work, part of the Routledge Revivals series, examines the complex relationship between Roman literature and its portrayal of foreign or black individuals. Rather than accepting the assumption that Roman attitudes toward these groups were rooted in modern concepts of racism, this book challenges readers to look closer at the historical context. By applying developments from sociological theory and psychology, the text provides an illuminating look at black-white relations within Roman society. It investigates the elusive definitions of race and racism, arguing against the idea that race functioned as a permanent, genetically transmitted social disability in the ancient world. This book is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in anthropology, sociology, and classical studies, offering an innovative way to understand how ancient societies viewed identity and difference.
