Roman families were infinitely diverse, but the basis of Roman civil law was the familia, a strictly-defined group consisting of a head - the paterfamilias - and his descendants in the male line. This book investigates the interrelationship between family and familia, especially how families exploited the legal rules for their own ends, and disrupted the familia, by use of emancipation (release from patria potestas ) and adoption. It also traces legal responses to the effects of demographic factors, which gave increased importance to maternal connections, and social factors, such as the difficulties for ex-slaves in conforming to the familia-pattern. The familia as a legal institution remained virtually unchanged; nevertheless Roman family law underwent substantial changes, to meet the needs and desires of Roman society.

La 4e de couv. indique : "Au-delà de toutes les remises en cause, la famille se présente le plus souvent comme une évidence, parce que naturelle et universelle. Elle a pourtant une histoire. Elle ne se résume pas au couple avec ou sans enfants. Et surtout, elle ne peut pas être cernée sans être replacée dans la société tout entière qui est son cadre. Telle est la perspective adoptée par cet ouvrage qui cherche à faire apparaître ce qu'ont pu être la famille, comme norme, et les familles dans leur diversité dans le monde grec et dans la Rome antique. Rassemblant des articles écrits par des spécialistes, ce livre présente aussi bien un état de la question qu'un aperçu des problèmes qui se cachent derrière la familiarité spontanée que suscite de prime abord la famille."

This volume continues the series of five previous Roman Family publications, and puts special focus on social history and living conditions in the familial contexts. It concentrates on three interlinked aspects of family life and interaction: liminal situations regarding demography and ecological factors that lay down the framework for family life, liminal conditions on the edges of familial life regarding child labour, child slaves and sexual attitudes towards children, and local traditions which confront us with people and cultures at the borders of the Roman Empire. By focusing on three recurring points of departure (Late Antiquity, children and childhood, and the encounter between various cultures), and by presenting a wide variety of methodological approaches (from rhetorical analysis of discourses to statistical analysis, and from experiential life stories to iconographic analysis), the present volume offers a view on the "status quaestionis" of Roman family studies, and widens the thematic points of departure for the study of the Roman family, thus hopefully pointing to fruitful directions for further studies.

La question du rapport entre famille et société, aux résonances si contemporaines, constitue le coeur de cet ouvrage. Le lecteur trouvera les définitions nécessaires pour saisir les "familles" grecque et romaine, les parentés de l'alliance et de la naissance, l'unité économique de production, la famille des droits et des devoirs. L'ouvrage offre une synthèse des différentes étapes de la vie en famille (naissance, mariage, adoption, funérailles), ces moments de sociabilité parfois générateurs de tensions, où s'entremêlent des intérêts autant familiaux que civiques : la famille s'inscrit dans la cité, qui la modèle, la contrôle et la surveille car elle en constitue la première unité. En puisant dans les sources dramaturgiques comme dans la documentation épigraphique, en croisant les théories philosophiques et les textes de loi, les auteurs ont souhaité offrir au lecteur un tableau synthétique et vivant des familles et des systèmes de parenté grecs et romains. Histoire du droit, histoire des sentiments, anthropologie de la parenté, histoire sociale, prosopographie, autant de méthodes réconciliées par le prisme familial que propose cette étude.
