Abstract:
"Knowledge of Rome's political institutions is essential both for ancient historians and for those who study the contribution of Rome to the republican tradition of political thought from the Middle Ages to the revolutions inspired by the Enlightenment. This book represents the first major work in English to study the constitution of the Roman Republic in all its complexity."--BOOK JACKET.
