The Oxford handbook of soci...
The book opens with a general introduction that portrays the current state of the field, provides the background necessary for the following chapters, and then indicates some potential avenues for further study. A second introductory essay explains the chronological parameters of the handbook, and especially the importance for Roman society of the changes wrought by the shift from republic to empire. The main body of the book is divided into the following sections: (1) Mechanisms of Socialization (the family, primary education, rhetorical education, philosophical upbringing, law and social formation); (2) Mechanisms of Communication and Interaction (literature, inscriptions, papyri, coins); (3) Communal Contexts for Social Interaction (self-representation, public speaking, the Second Sophistic, courts of law, public entertainments, bathing); (4) Modes of Interpersonal Relations (honor, friendship, hospitality, dining, violence); (5) Societies within the Roman Community (collegia, the army, cultic societies, Judaism, Christianity); and (6) Marginalized Persons (slaves, women, children, prostitutes, actors and gladiators, magicians and astrologers, bandits, disabled people). The result is a unique and up-to-date survey of ancient Roman social relations."--publisher
