Description - Slavery through the Ages by John R Coe
This is an overview of slaver throughout the ages, largely in the West. It looks at enslavement from a theological perspective, including ancient Israel, early Christianity, and the Catholic Church. It considers slavery in classical Greece and Rome. We study various philosophers, including Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero, as well as theologian-philosophers, including St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas. We study political theorists, including Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Immanuel Kant. Last, we look at the final stand of slavery in the United States and its pre-Civil War defense by Southern writers.
