Recenzje

Telling stories about migration can challenge the lies and fear it provokes, and it is a sad fact that we know more about ancient Phoenician-speaking migrants than we do about many of those found-and lost-in the Mediterranean today. Denise Demetriou's radical work explores how mobility changed these people, their new hosts, and their old homes. It reveals the breadth of ancient history beyond Greece and Rome, but it also suggests that notions of citizenship today can be established in negotiation with immigrants rather than simply in reaction against them.
