Emotion, Restraint and Community in Ancient Rome, Paperback / softback Book

Emotion, Restraint and Community in Ancient Rome Paperback / softback

Part of the Classical Culture and Society series

Paperback / softback

Description

Emotion, Restraint, and Community examines the ways in which emotions, and talk about emotions, interacted with the ethics of the Roman upper classes in the late Republic and early Empire.

By considering how various Roman forms of fear, dismay, indignation, and revulsion created an economy of displeasure that shaped society in constructive ways, the book casts new light both on the Romans and on cross-cultural understanding of emotions.
