Memória de viajante: as faces da escravidão no Mediterrâneo antigo (séc. II d. C.)

Abstract

In this article we will analyze the power relations between slaves and lords from an analystical instrument in which the power, as says Foucault, happens from spread mechanisms in which all the individuals act and feel its effects, its varied devices. We will understand the actions from the slaves, that are understood in the everyday from the Metamorfoses, by Lúcio Apuleio, novel from the II d. C century, by powerfull practices. Even if the slaves are in inferiority situations, they exercise powers in situations in which they practice their Jobs or even through negocitions with their lords in domestic or public environments.
