Behind the vast panorama of the pagan Roman empire, the reader discovers the intimate daily lives of citizens & slaves—from concepts of manhood & sexuality to marriage & the family, the roles of women, chastity & contraception, techniques of childbirth, homosexuality, religion, the meaning of virtue, & the separation of private & public spaces. The emergence of Christianity in the West & the triumph of Christian morality w/ its emphasis on abstinence, celibacy, & austerity is startlingly contrasted w/ the profane & undisciplined private life of the Byzantine Empire. Using illuminating motifs, the authors weave a rich, colorful fabric ornamented w/ the results of new research & the broad interpretations that only masters of the subject can provide. * ABOUT THE EDITORS: GEORGES DUBY, a member of the Académie Française, is Professor of Medieval History at the Collège de France.

Written & edited by leading scholars & lucidly accessible to any reader who wishes to investigate how people lived & behaved, who people were in earlier times, their thoughts, their feelings, their bodies, their attitudes, their habits & habitations, their codes, their marks, their signs. These volumes cover the development of the private domain over twenty centuries w/ each time & culture imprinting its own definition of "private life". The volumes examine the legal definition of privacy, the relationship between the private domain & the state, the dialectics of privacy & intimacy. The fields of investigation include the household, family feeling, affective & sexual relationships, & attitudes toward birth & death. The unequaled sweep & depth of erudition of these volumes is a tribute to founding members of the Annales school of history (including the late Philippe Ariés & Georges Duby, the original editors of the series) as well as the endeavors of brilliant scholars who have tracked-down images of private life wherever they could be found, on the parchment of texts, the silk or homespun of garments & the stones of dwellings. * VOLUME I: From Pagan Rome to Byzantium, edited by Paul Veyne, 7.25" x 9.25" X 1.34", 1.48 kg, xi+670 (681) pp., 100s of b-w illustrations, insert of 17 full-color plates, notes, bibliography, acknowledgments, index.
