Infos

Education is and was a mighty tool for both building communities and barring people from social participation. This volume explores the role education played for late Roman societies especially in Gaul, which was considered a landscape of learning. Numerous literary and material sources document a dynamic educational culture, even though imperial administrative structures were disintegrating by the fifth century and non-Romans were settling in Western provinces. But was Gaul really learned in its entirety? Which different educational communities can be traced? How did education affect processes of in- and exclusion? Thanks to a wide range of case studies, the contributions presented here throw open a window on the societal dimensions of education and frame the discursive outlines of Gallia docta .
