Greek Slavery, Paperback / softback Book

Greek Slavery Paperback / softback

Part of the Trends in Classics - Key Perspectives on Classical Research series

Paperback / softback

Description

Slavery is attested throughout ancient Greek history and all over the Greek world.

Unsurprisingly, then, scholarship on Greek slavery has proliferated in the past twenty-five or so years, making a holistic synthesis of such work especially desirable.

This book offers a state-of-the-art guide to research on this subject, surveying recent scholarly trends and controversies and suggesting future directions for research.

Topics include regional variation in slave systems; the economics of slavery; the treatment of enslaved people; sex and gender; agency, resistance, and revolt; manumission; and representations, metaphors, and legacies of Greek slavery.

Readers, including those interested in slavery of other time periods, will find this book an essential resource in learning about key issues in Greek slavery studies or in pursuing their own research.
