The Family in the Roman World: Debates and Documents in Ancient History

Autor Mary Harlow, Tim Parkin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2018
What did it feel like to be a member of a Roman family? How different was it being a daughter rather than a son, a husband rather than a wife? What role did grandparents play in the family? Did children matter? How did experiences differ among various classes and geographical areas of the Roman empire over time, especially with the advent of Christianity? This book examines modern debates and controversies that have made up the history of the Roman family. Looking at written texts (literary, epigraphical; and papyrological) and archaeological evidence (ranging from household items to house plans), it examines the interactions of ideals and social realities, and the issues and controversies that surround the history of the family. It will show both students and teachers the nature of modern debates and enable them to assess the ancient evidence first hand. Key Features - Source materials combined with examination of key topics - Wide range of sources including literary, archaeological, artistic, legal, documentary, coins and inscriptions - Gathers key texts in one place -Useful tools such as glossary, bibliography and questions for consideration - Guides to further reading and web resources to encourage research
