Family Empires, Roman And Christian: Volume I Roman Family Empires - 9781598152074

Family values in the Roman empire centered on an all-powerful father-owner-master of each household and of the empire itself. Many imperial subjects, including early Christians, resisted this form of family. Elliott's review of first-century struggles over family values offers insights for understanding similar conflicts today.
