Exploring these concepts through a variety of different aspects - legal, religious, literary, political, and cultural - this book aims to explain the profound relationship between the two. Through the examination of a rich array of sources ranging from classical authors to coins, from legal texts to works of art, Balmaceda and her co-authors propose new readings that elucidate the complex meanings and inter-related functions of libertas and res publica , in a thought-provoking, deep, but very readable study of Roman political culture and identity.Impact of Empire (Roman Empire, c. 200 B.C.-A.D. 476) (Series) ;37.LibertyHistoryRomePolitics and government265-30 B.CLibertyHistory.323.4409Balmaceda Catalina1970-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827135503321Libertas and Res publica in the Roman Republic3382290UNINA
