Modern society has a negative view of youth as a period of storm
and stress, but at the same time cherishes the idea of eternal
youth. How does this compare with ancient Roman society? Did a
phase of youth exist there with its own characteristics? How was
youth appreciated? This book studies the lives and the image of
youngsters (around 15 25 years of age) in the Latin West and the
Greek East in the Roman period. Boys and girls of all social
classes come to the fore; their lives, public and private, are
sketched with the help of a range of textual and documentary
sources, while the authors also employ the results of recent
neuropsychological research. The result is a highly readable and
wide-ranging account of how the crucial transition between
childhood and adulthood operated in the Roman world."
