Legal Curses and Politics in Archaic and Classical Sicily
Bianchi Mancini, Sofia (Universitat Erfurt, Germany)
This book offers the first contextual study of Sicilian legal curse tablets, with new photographs, drawings and editions. For the first time, it shows how curses functioned as 'paralegal' tools in power struggles and strategies of status renegotiation, reshaping our understanding of law, society and culture in the ancient Mediterranean.
