Chapter 49: , labelled Βάρωνος, asserts the necessity of keeping such (4)

Text size

[1797] That religious scruple was opposed to keeping members of the same race-unit in slavery is most probable. This _trans Tiberim_ rule is known from Gellius XX 1 § 47, referring to debt-slaves. Greeks however, even when abhorring the enslavement of Greek by Greek in principle, did not discontinue the practice. E Meyer _Kl Schr_ p 202 compares the medieval scruple in reference to brother Christians. See also his remarks p 177. For Hebrew law and custom see _Encyclopaedia Biblica_ (1903) vol IV and Hastings’ _Dictionary of the Bible_ (1902) vol IV, articles _Slavery_.

[1798] Different also from the position of a food-producer class in a great territorial state, being based on local conditions.

[1799] Illustrated with great clearness in the provisions of the Gortyn laws.

[1800] Varro _RR_ I 17 § 2 on _obaerarii_ or _obaerati_.

[1801] The relative importance of land and the means of cultivation [especially oxen] in early times, the power thus gained by chiefs granting cattle to tenants, and the connexion of these phenomena with legends of debt-slavery, are instructively discussed in Maine’s _Early history of Institutions_, lecture VI.

[1802] Mr G G Coulton kindly reminds me of an analogy observable in the history of Art. It is progressive on simple lines up to a certain point. Then it begins to ramify, and differences of taste become more acute. Hence an anarchy of taste, driving men to yearn (like Ruskin, Morris, etc.) for the old simplicity. So the peasant up to a point is useful and noble. But fresh currents of civilization alter his position. Then men yearn for the old simplicity, only defective through being essentially simple.

[1803] Mr Zimmern, _The Greek Commonwealth_ pp 265 foll, has some interesting remarks on craftsmen as wage-earners, and points out their preference for serving the state rather than private employers. The latter plan would have put them almost in the position of slaves.

[1804] When food was provided, we must reckon it as part of his wage.

[1805] A vast number of Greek records of manumission refer to such cases.

[1806] See Francotte, _L’Industrie dans la Grèce ancienne_ book II chap 5, _La concurrence servile_. I cannot follow E Meyer _Kl Schr_ pp 198-201. And the oft-cited passage of Timaeus (Athen VI 264 d), where free Phocians object to slaves taking their employment, refers solely to domestic and personal attendance.

[1807] Of this there is abundant American evidence from writers on Slavery. The hired slave sometimes got a higher wage than the hired freeman.

[1808] See Whitaker’s Almanack, and the exposure of an impudent agency for the purpose in the _Times_ 15 Sept 1914.

[1809] Compare Wendell Phillips ‘Before this there had been among us scattered and single abolitionists, earnest and able men; sometimes, like Wythe of Virginia, in high places. The Quakers and Covenanters had never intermitted their testimony against slavery. But Garrison was the first man to begin a _movement_ designed to annihilate slavery.’ Speech at G’s funeral 1879.

[1810] Prof Bury, _Idea of Progress_ p 275, points out that Guizot noted that Christianity did not in its early stages aim at any improvement of social conditions.

[1811] The conclusions reached in this paragraph are in agreement with E Meyer _Kl Schr_ pp 151-2, 155, 205, 209. But he seems to put the decline of the slave-gang system rather earlier than I venture to do.

[1812] We must bear in mind that a tenant was naturally unwilling to work for a margin of profit not to be retained by himself. Hence the tendency to find means of constraining him to do so.

[1813] _coloni_ or _quasi coloni_, cf Dig XV 3 § 16, XXXIII 8 § 23³, or XXXIII 7 §§ 12³, 18⁴, 20¹, and numerous other references.

[1814] The compulsory tenure of municipal offices is commonly cited as illustrating the pressure even on men of means. It began in the second century. See Dig L 1 § 38⁶, 2 § 1 [Ulpian], 4 § 14⁶ [Callistratus citing Hadrian], and many other passages. Notable is L 4 § 4¹ _honores qui indicuntur_ [Ulpian].

[1815] This topic is the subject of Churchill Babington’s Hulsean dissertation, Cambridge 1846. I learn that a pamphlet by Brecht, _Sklaverei und Christentum_, takes a less favourable view, but have not seen it. The survival of the colonate and its heavy burdens in the early Middle Age are treated by de Coulanges, particularly in connexion with the estates of the Church.

[1816] The slow progress of emancipation is referred to by E Meyer _Kl Schr_ p 178, of course from a very different point of view. He mentions that slavery was not completely forbidden in Prussia till 1857, and is against its abolition in German colonies. Seeley in his _Life of Stein_ points out that the armies of Frederic the Great were mainly recruited from serfs.

[1817] The Turk and his Rayahs furnishes a very striking illustration.

[1818] E Meyer, _Kl Schr_ p 188.

[1819] Since writing this section I have found in Prof Bury’s _Idea of Progress_ pp 269-70 a passage which seems to justify the objection here raised, though it occurs in a different connexion.

[1820] It is perhaps hardly necessary to refer to the great economic disturbance caused by the Black Death in fourteenth century England.

[1821] John Spargo, _Bolshevism, the enemy of political and industrial Democracy_. London, J Murray 1919. I think I may accept the author’s evidence on the points here referred to, confirmed as it is by other observers. See his remarks pp 69, 156, 275, 278, in particular. That the same sharp distinction between peasant and wage-earner is drawn by the Socialists in other countries also, and is to them a stumbling-block, is clearly to be seen in King and Okey’s _Italy today_. See appendix.

[1822] A remarkable article in the _Times_ of 10 May 1920 describes the influences tending in the opposite direction in the United States, particularly the workman’s prospect of proprietorship.

[1823] For the survival of the colonate in the West see de Coulanges pp 145-86.

[1824] See Krumbacher’s history of Byzantine Literature in Iwan Müller’s Handbuch, and Oder’s article in Pauly-Wissowa.

[1825] Varro _RR_ I 17 §§ 3, 4.

[1826] In the _Journal of Hellenic Studies_ 1910 and 1912. There the views of Zachariä are discussed.

[1827] The truth seems to be that serfage had never become so widespread in the East as in the West, as Mr Bouchier, _Syria as a Roman Province_ p 181, points out.

[1828] Vol II pp 418-421.
