This book shows how the social realities and cultural representations diverged from this paradigm. Demographic analysis and computer simulation demonstrate that before adulthood most Romans lost their fathers by death. Close reading of Latin texts reveals Roman fathers as devoted and loving, and not harsh, exploitative masters of slaves. The demographic and cultural contexts deepen our understanding of how the patrimony was transmitted.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525205426464,"sku":"NEW0521326036","price":155.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61wDuX3WCML_e58264ed-e576-40b4-bd4b-28a6e91ab63f.jpg?v=1777143980","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/patriarchy-property-and-death-in-the-roman-family-cambridge-studies-in-population-economy-and-society-in-past-time-series-number-25-0521326036","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
