| Description | Children are an important part of human society, although they are rarely heard from the distant past. This monograph explores and reconstructs the world of the Roman citizens' children and the structure and social framework of the child's life in the family and society of the Roman Empire, especially the issues of violence and death in the children's lives. It analyses children's encounters with violence and death, examining the role of the child as a victim in extreme situations (when confronted with violence or death) and as an active agent who may transgress social norms and commit violence or other forms of crime, or who must deal with death, one's own and that of the loved ones. |
