Tekst achterflap

Traces the growth of the Roman constitution and examines how it functioned during the mature Republic and the Principate. "My desire was to touch, however briefly, on all the important aspects of the important aspects of public life, central, municipal, and provincial; and, thus, to exhibit the political genius of the Roman in connexion with all the chief problems of administration which it attempted to solve." (Preface). Includes a useful index of Latin words and an index of passages from ancient authors referenced in the text. xx, 483 pp.
