Inhaltsangabe
Muggings on the street, theft at the public bath, graft and embezzlement by public officials, assassination plots, subversive ideas, were all feared by the citizens of Rome, who sought protection in criminal law. Robinson (law, U. of Glasgow) focuses on Sulla's establishment of standing jury courts during his dictatorship in 82-81 B.C., but also considers other periods of the Empire to show how the government dealt with crimes committed for gain, crimes involving violence, sexual offenses, offenses against the state, and offenses against public order. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

Zustand: Gut. X, 212 Seiten / p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - Although the Romans lived in a society very different from ours, they were like us in fearing crime and in hoping to control it by means of the law. Ordinary citizens wanted protection from muggers in the streets or thieves at the public baths. They demanded laws to punish officials who abused power or embezzled public monies. Even emperors, who feared plotters and wanted to repress subversive ideas and doctrines, looked to the Roman law for protection. -- In the first book in English to focus on the substantive criminal law of ancient Rome, O. F. Robinson offers a lively study of an essential aspect of Roman life and identity. Robinson begins with a discussion of the framework within which the law operated and the nature of criminal responsibility. She looks at the criminal law of Rome as it was established in the late Republic under Sullas system of standing jury-courts. Grouping offenses functionally into five chapters, she examines crimes committed for gain, crimes involving violence, sexual offenses, offenses against the state, and offenses against the due ordering of society and the state. -- Early Roman criminal law is both obscure and hotly debated. . While there remain arguments about the early manifestations of individual courts, it is clear that under Sulla (in his dictatorship, 82-81 B.C.) a system of standing juries was established. It is on this system that the juristic development of the criminal law was predicated, and without this system a criminal jurisprudence would not have been possible. - from The Criminal Law of Ancient Rome.
