Ancient Greece is generally recognized as one of only a handful of ¿slave societies¿ in world history, with slavery playing an important role in all aspects of Greek culture. Unsurprisingly, then, scholarship on Greek slavery has proliferated in the past forty or so years, making a holistic synthesis of such work especially desirable. This book offers a state-of-the-art guide to research on this subject, surveying recent scholarly trends and controversies and suggesting future directions for research. Topics include the representation of slaves in Greek art and literature; slavery and the economy; slaves and the law; the treatment of slaves; slavery and sexuality; the manumission of slaves; slave resistance and revolt; and ancient justifications and criticisms of slavery. Readers, including those interested in slavery of other time periods, will find this book an essential resource in learning about key issues in Greek slavery studies or in pursuing their own research.
