Quoted text:
Charpin[1] wrote (p. 38): “The Babylonians ignored in effect that men were born free and equal. For a slave born of a free mother, amargi signified a return to liberty. For a slave born of a slave mother, amargi meant a return to the master in whose house he was born.”
Can a French-speaker verify the Charpin quotation and page number?
