Luctatio civitatis
In this paper I revisit the notorious debate in the Roman senate over Tiberius’ accession. The conventional view is that Tiberius began his reign with a refusal of power (recusatio imperii) and that the issue in the accession debate was whether or not Tiberius would rule.

The Roman State
This chapter examines juridical epigraphy, that is, normative texts involving officials and organs of the Roman state (“sources of law”) and private legal documents, such as wills, commercial and financial instruments, and judicial documents.
