The Institutes are a complete exposition of the elements of Roman law and are divided into four books—the first treating of persons and the differences of the status they may occupy in the eye of the law; the second-of things, and the modes in which rights over them may be acquired, including the law relating to wills; the third of intestate succession and of obligations; the fourth of actions and their forms.

The Roman Republic

ISBN: 9781516543816
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
The Roman Republic: A History for Students is an approachable and engaging textbook that equips students with the foundational information and research they need to better understand ancient Roman history and culture. Written to pique the interest of students with scant previous knowledge of Roman history, the concern of the book is less with what that history is than what that history means. Throughout the text, students are challenged to think critically, ask big questions, and explore grand concepts. Each of the book's 12 chapters offers an exploration of key moments in Roman Republic history, beginning with the dramatic story of the last king's overthrow and ending with the assassination of Julius Caesar. The basic terms and concepts needed to understand Roman politics and religion are provided in the first two chapters, and each subsequent chapter introduces students to a different aspect of Roman society and culture, such as food and dining, the military, money, the Latin language, and roads and aqueducts. The Roman Republic is part of the Cognella Antiquity Series, a collection of textbooks that explore the emergence and development of ancient civilizations. The books examine how ancient ideas, empires, social structures, art, literature, and religious beliefs emerged in response to the challenges faced by ancient people as their worlds expanded and changed.

Rome and Italy
Author: LivyPublisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141913118
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Books VI-X of Livy's monumental work trace Rome's fortunes from its near collapse after defeat by the Gauls in 386 bc to its emergence, in a matter of decades, as the premier power in Italy, having conquered the city-state of Samnium in 293 bc. In this fascinating history, events are described not simply in terms of partisan politics, but through colourful portraits that bring the strengths, weaknesses and motives of leading figures such as the noble statesman Camillus and the corrupt Manlius vividly to life. While Rome's greatest chronicler intended his history to be a memorial to former glory, he also had more didactic aims - hoping that readers of his account could learn from the past ills and virtues of the city.
