Slavery is a relationship of power, and to study slavery - and not simply masters or slaves - we need to see the interactions of individuals who speak to each other, a rare kind of evidence from the ancient world.Plautus' comedies could be our most reliable source for reconstructing the lives of slaves in ancient Rome.
