　　The Cambridge Companion to the Roman Republic examines all

***ects of Roman history and civilization from 509–49 BC. The key

development of the republican period was Rome's rise from a small

city to a wealthy metropolis and international capital of an

extensive Mediterranean empire. These centuries produced the

classic republican political system and the growth of a world

empire. They also witnessed the disintegration of this system under

the pressure of internal dissension and boundless ambition of its

leading politicians. In this Companion volume, distinguished

European and American scholars present a variety of lively

approaches to understanding the political, military, and social

***ects of Roman history, as well as its li***ry and visual

culture. Designed to be accessible to the general reader and to

students, The Cambridge Companion to the Roman Republic will invite

further exploration to a vital, formative period of Roman history

and its later influence.

For the nobility began to abuse their prestige and the people their liberty. Each man was taking, seizing, and stealing for himself. And so everything was divided into two facti***, and the state, which was in the middle, was torn apart.

This was the beginning of civil bloodshed and of the free reign of swords in the city og Rome. From then on justice was overthrown by forcr and the strongest was preeminent. Disagreements between citizens that in an earlier time had usually been settled through mediation were now decided by the sword. Wars were not started over the issues but according to the rewards. This state of affairs were hardly surprising. For precedents are not limited to their origins. However narrow their first path, a broad road is then created with great latitude. Once the path...

At the moment, there is a tendency to stress the normality of political life during the late republic. This seems juestified insofar as none of the main participants was proposing a different c***titution, with the result that what happened was not part of a teleological process but c***tituted a "crisis without an alternative". Yet it was a genuine crisis whose problems should not be minimized, notably the challenges facing the poor in the city and even more importantly the agrarian issues, including the need to make provision for ve***ns of the army. Through its refusal to produce a solution to these problems, the senate created serious doubts about its own legitmacy as the ultimate governing body, which in turn caused the soldiers to stage repeated "marches on Rome". In this context, i...
