Histoire de familles dans le monde grec ancien et dans la Rome antique

Christophe Pébarthe & Olivier Devillers (dir.)

€20.00 Tax included

Beyond all reasonable doubt, family appears most often as an evidence, because it seems natural and universal. Yet family has a history and cannot be reduced to the couple with or without progeny. Above all, it is impossible to understand what is family without considering it as a part of society as a whole. This book tries to study family as a norm and to show the diversity of families in Antiquity. With a collection of articles written by specialists, this book exposes as much the state of the art as it does an outline of the questions raised by this topic in spite of the fake sensation of familiarity which family conveys.
