Abstract

This chapter investigates domestic violence in the ancient world by making use of the expanded understanding of the abusive relationship between perpetrator and victim offered by the concept of coercive control. Coercive control describes a pattern of behaviour which may include acts of physical violence, but also non-physical emotional, psychological and financial abuse. I offer four case-studies, each of which takes as its starting point a behaviour associated with coercive control: (1) patriarchal entitlement; (2) patterns of abuse; (3) intimate partner homicide; and (4) non-physical abuse. A broader definition of domestic violence allows us better to understand the abuse (physical and non-physical) experienced by victims in the ancient world and encourages greater sensitivity to the experience of modern victim-survivors of domestic abuse and the ways in which these modern readers (including our students) may interpret ancient evidence.

从笼子开始":强制控制与罗马丈夫
本章利用胁迫性控制概念对施暴者和受害者之间虐待关系的扩展理解,对古代世界的家庭暴力进行研究。胁迫性控制描述了一种行为模式,可能包括身体暴力行为,也可能包括非身体的情感、心理和经济虐待。我提供了四个案例研究,每个案例都以与强制控制相关的行为为出发点:(1)父权;(2)虐待模式;(3)亲密伴侣杀人;以及(4)非身体虐待。对家庭暴力进行更广泛的定义可以让我们更好地理解古代受害者所经历的虐待(身体和非身体虐待),并鼓励我们对现代家庭暴力受害者-幸存者的经历以及这些现代读者(包括我们的学生)解释古代证据的方式保持更高的敏感性。
