  • Subject: [Corpus-Paul] Augustan Family Legislation
  • Date: Thu, 1 Jan 2004 20:13:53 -0600

I am in the middle of preparing a lecture series for my church and others in
the Twin Cities. It's about the early Christian response to the Roman
Empire its ideological-metaphorical foundations in the Roman family system.
("Whose Family Values? A Liberal Christian Biblical Perspective -- The
Early Christian Alternative Vision of Family")

(I'm applying the work of George Lakoff, Moral Politics, to the Roman Empire
and using a lot of the material the Peoples' History of Christianity project
have been assembling.)

I wonder -- Does anyone out there know LOTS about the Augustan family
legislation? I do not have access at the moment to the primary sources and
there are some questions I have that are not dealt with in the secondary
sources I've read.

Thanks!

Elli
