Controversial since its discovery, it is depicted here as a keystone in Caracalla?s attempt to revolutionise the public image of the Severan dynasty after murdering his brother. There is an inherent paradox between the apparently progressive nature of the edict, and the volatile emperor responsible for it. The enigma is only heightened by a dearth of ancient evidence relating to the legislation. By combining literary and material evidence with the surviving papyrological record, Alex Imrie shows that Caracalla?s rationale is best understood in an embedded context. 410 0$aImpact of Empire$v29. 606 $aCitizenship$zRome 607 $aRome$xPolitics and government$y30 B.C.-284 A.D 615 0$aCitizenship 676 $a937.07 700 $aImrie$b Alex$01677551 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808315803321 996 $aThe Antonine Constitution$94044531 997 $aUNINA
