Roman Ladies on Trial: The Case of Maesia of Sentinum
M AESIA OF THE UMBRIAN city of Sentinum makes her sole appearance in history as the heroine of a brief anecdote relayed by Valerius Maximus. Brought to trial before the praetor L. Titius, she presumes to defend herself and her courage and rhetorical virtuosity win her an almost unanimous vote for acquittal. However, her very triumph in this male forum also earns her the nickname of Androgyne which satirizes her usurpation of the male role in cour…
Symbols and Showmanship in Roman Public Life: The Fasces
STUDIES OF ROMAN POLITICAL HISTORY which employ the approved techniques of prosopography and analysis of factiones have furthered our knowledge of the workings of aristocracy but have also tended to rob the colour from our picture of Roman public life. A striking feature of that life which is not illuminated by such techniques is a highly developed sense of pageantry, even showmanship, amply documented and expressed over a wide range of solemn oc…

The Case of Valeria: An Inheritance-Dispute in Roman Asia
In a vigorously argued passage of the oration Pro L. Flacco , Cicero defends his client L. Valerius Flaccus against the charge that he had acted improperly during his governorship of Asia three years previously in claiming as heres legitimus the estate of one Valeria, wife of Sextilius Andro, who had died intestate in the province. This section of the speech involves Cicero in a brief display of his knowledge of the civil law concerning tutela , …
Flaccus and the Jews of Asia (Cicero "Pro Flacco" 28.67-69)
OUR MOST VIVID AND RELIABLE piece of literary evidence concerning the Jewish community of Republican Rome is to be found in a dramatic passage of Cicero's oration Pro L. Flacco. Having dealt with the complaints of the cities of Asia, Cicero pauses briefly before proceeding to the accusations of the Roman residents of the province in order to defend his client L. Valerius Flaccus against auri illa invidia ludaici. This involves the allegation that…
Verres and Judicial Corruption
One of the most important pieces of evidence which we possess concerning the judicial rights of Roman provincials, particularly their status in relation to the governor's tribunal, is provided by Cicero's brief outline of those provisions of the lex Rupilia , the Sicilian provincial charter, which dealt with judicial administration. The passage reads as follows: Siculi hoc iure sunt ut, quod civis cum cive agat, domi certet suis legibus, quod Sic…
Governors on the Move
M Y PURPOSE in this paper' is to attempt to modify the idea of a typical Roman governor of the later Republic which the sources, with their emphasis on the military expansion of Rome's territory and the fate of her more corrupt provincial magistrates, tend to suggest to us. I refer to the familiar image of an essentially military official who was either campaigning or holding royal court in some settled location chosen to suit his personal taste …
