Rome's ruling elite resided in a dense urban layout. The houses of senators were subject to a specific code of conduct, both symbolic and actual, that was crucial for the people's recognition of aristocratic leadership. The article examines the Roman discourse revolving around senatorial homes and demonstrates how this discourse reflected changing ideas of a well-governed res publica. L'élite politique de Rome résidait dans un tissu urbain plutôt dense. Les maisons de la classe sénatoriale devaient dès lors se soumettre à un strict code de conduite qui était tout à la fois symbolique et très réel, tout en étant de première importance pour la reconnaissance par le peuple du droit à l'aristocratie de diriger la République. Cet article se penche sur le discours romain dans le milieu des maisons sénatoriales et montre comment ce discours reflète l'évolution de la perception de ce qu'est un état bien administré
