AbebooksFRCalepinus, la librairie latin-grec ISBN10: 0521599784, ISBN13: 9780521599788, [publisher: Cambridge University press] Softcover The figure of the Roman father has traditionally provided the pattern of patriarchy in European thought. This book shows how the social realities and cultural representations diverged from this paradigm. Demographic analysis and computer simulation demonstrate that before adulthood most Romans lost their fathers by death. Close reading of Latin texts reveals Roman fathers as devoted and loving and not harsh exploitative masters of slaves. The demographic and cultural contexts deepen our understanding of how the patrimony was transmitted. en anglais Cambridge Studies in Population, Economy and Society in Past Time n°25 XIV + 249 pages 15 x 23
