Abstract

This paper draws upon analogy with better documented slave societies (the medieval Islamic world, and the 18th-century Caribbean) to argue, first, that the institution of slavery was a major factor in fostering a discourse on the differences among foreign peoples; and secondly, that Greek ethnographic writing was informed by the experience of slavery, containing implicit justifications of slavery as an institution. It then considers the implications of these conclusions for our understanding of Greek representations of the barbarian world and for Greek contact with non-Greeks.

古典希腊民族志与奴隶贸易
本文借鉴了有更好文献记载的奴隶社会(中世纪的伊斯兰世界和18世纪的加勒比地区),首先认为奴隶制制度是促进讨论外国人民之间差异的一个主要因素;第二,希腊民族志写作是以奴隶制的经历为基础的,包含了奴隶制作为一种制度的隐含理由。然后,它考虑了这些结论对我们理解希腊人对野蛮世界的描述以及希腊人与非希腊人接触的影响。
