Henri Alexandre Wallon's "History of Slavery in Ancient Rome" is a classic of classical studies. It and Wallon's earlier work, "History of Slavery in Ancient Greece," have inspired numerous studies on slavery, but perhaps none surpasses his work in the breadth and depth of its understanding. Where did slaves come from, how many there were, where were they used, how much did they cost, what was their status in the eyes of Roman jurists, on what grounds were slaves manumitted, and what place did freedmen occupy in society—this is just a brief list of the questions Wallon answers. And the most important question: how did slavery, the foundation of ancient Rome's economy, influence the mentality of its full citizens? It was precisely this influence, according to Wallon, that became one of the reasons for the fall of the seemingly eternal Roman Empire. The translation was made especially for this edition.
