Peter Hunt, Ancient Greek and Roman Slavery, Wiley Blackwell, 2018.

Abstract

Although his name will not reverberate as much as that of some of his predecessors when researchers of the very complex subject of slavery in the Antiquity are mentioned, Peter Hunt’s works have nevertheless won him acclaim as one of the leading researchers of slaveholding societies. A professor at the University of Colorado, Hunt specializes in social history in the context of slavery and wars – specifically, in ancient Greece. His book Ancient Greek and Roman Slavery was published by Wiley Blackwell in 2018. He himself announced it back in 2012. It is his first major work on the slavery in Rome.
