The Men Who Smashed the Pub
What does Philip’s dad tell him to do when he heard the noises coming from downstairs?
What did the men breaking into the pub prove to Philip?
Barbarism
“For the Roman soldier Hadrian’s Wall was more than just a defense against the Caledonaian tribes- it also represented the dividing line between the known world of order and civilization, and the unknown world of chaos and barbarism” (pg. 68-69). Analyze this quote
Who does Philip’s father say broke into the pub? Who paid them? What did Philip’s father say was the reason?

    >What this quote is stating is that those outside their world are considered barbarians because they represent the unknown. They thought this is where the world ended because it was outside their sphere.
