More about the book

Exploring the pervasive role of slavery in ancient Greece, the author highlights how every aspect of Greek culture reflects the distinction between slave and free. By examining material culture and key literary works, including those by Plato and Aristotle, the book reveals how the normalization of slavery shaped Greek concepts of identity and freedom. It critiques the tendency of scholars to overlook this integral aspect of antiquity, opening new avenues for understanding the complexities of classical civilization and its legacy.
