"Barbarian" is a historical term often used to describe people or groups perceived as uncivilized or primitive by more advanced societies. The term has roots in ancient Greece, where it referred to non-Greek speakers. Over time, it has been applied to various cultures, often reflecting biases and stereotypes held by more dominant civilizations. In modern contexts, "Barbarian" can also refer to various forms of media, including films, books, and video games. For example, the Netflix series titled Barbarians dramatizes the conflict between the Roman Empire and the Germanic tribes during the early centuries AD, highlighting themes of resistance and cultural clash.
