### title

SLAVERY IN THE ANCIENT ROMAN WORLD

### description

Slavery pervaded every part of life in ancient Greece and Rome. As the influential historian of the ancient economy Moses Finley put it, "there was no action or belief or institution in Greco-Roman antiquity that was not one way or other affected by the possibility that someone involved might be a slave." Focuses on slavery in ancient Rome, with due attention given to comparative material (Near Eastern, Greek, and Atlantic). Provides an overview of the institution and its role in Roman private and public life, and examines a variety of evidence (literary, material, documentary) that confronts important themes in the study of ancient slavery, e.g. ideologies of slavery and freedom; manumission; the social position of enslaved and freed people; gender, sexuality, and the family; literary depictions of slavery; and comparative slaveries.
