Summary "Storia degli Italiani, vol. 02 (di 15)" by Cesare Cantù is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume continues the exploration of Italian history, delving into themes of slavery and civil wars, primarily focusing on ancient Rome. It examines the societal structures, moral injustices, and the implications of warfare on the lives of various classes within Roman society. The opening of this volume addresses the systemic nature of slavery in ancient Rome, highlighting how slaves were viewed as property rather than individuals with rights. It discusses the legal framework surrounding slavery, the brutal realities faced by enslaved individuals, and the economic reliance of Roman citizens on slave labor. Moreover, it introduces the topic of civil strife, alluding to multiple uprisings among slaves and the conflicts resulting from their desperate conditions. Through vivid descriptions, the text sets a grim, yet crucial stage for understanding the darker facets of Roman life and the tensions that shaped its historical narrative.
