Abstract
General interest in the ‘everyday’ life of past societies and cultures, particularly when they are felt to be relevant to our own civilisation and its history, is a widespread and usually taken-for-granted phenomenon of our times. Books on subjects such as ‘Everyday life in Greece and Rome’ or ‘Daily life in Carthage’, consisting of popularised (and often, perhaps inevitably,’ rather oversimplified, and even muddled) renderings of more esoteric scholarly research,-are regular additions to the vast amount of ‘serious’ and ‘non-fictional’ literature printed each year and produced by the world’s (and more particularly European and North American) publishing houses.
