Writing, Enslavement, and Power

Joseph Howley

Joseph Howley recently published Writing, Enslavement, and Power in the Roman Mediterranean, 100 BCE–300 CE which he co-edited with Jeremiah Coogan and Candida R. Moss.

“This volume assembles twenty-two scholars from the fields of classics and early Christian studies to interrogate the intersections between writing and enslavement around the Roman Mediterranean. Drawing upon methods developed in scholarship on book history and Atlantic slavery, the authors demonstrate the myriad ways in which the material and intellectual contributions of enslaved literary workers were vital to the composition, editing, copying, circulation, reading, and preservation of Roman texts.”
