The historian should: A) Study ancient Roman culture to learn more about Roman attitudes toward violence and slavery.

To learn any subject that involves history, it is very important to know the context as many things change depending on the period and place selected. By studying Roman culture he will be closer to undestanding the values that were learned and exalted. He would probably learn that being a slave was very common and rarely questioned. The way death is undestanded might have changed as well.

In this way the historian can take some distance from his own values and preconceptions and have a broader understanding of the topic chosen.
