II. The Roman Republic, ? BCE

Paradox of Republican Rome Values espoused not values maintained by ruling Senate

A. Republic and class compromise 1. Law of 12 Tables (450 BCE) 2. Conquest of Italian peninsula

B. The Punic Wars, BCE 1. Nearly defeated Rome

III. Culture in Republican Rome

A. Empire of Farmers and Soldiers 1. Spokesman of republican virtue Cato the Elder

1. Women 2. Sons 3. Slaves

Fear of Slave Revolt 73 BC - Spartacus leads slave revolt; 70,000 Required 3 Roman armies to defeat him Led to “hysteria” among free Romans Crassus v. Pompey: origins of dictatorship

D. Senate instransigience 1. The Gracchus brothers (see Plutarch) 2. Public display

E. Religion 1. No specific caste of priests 2. Each family had its own gods, spirits - ancestor worship 3. Romans adopted other gods, ie the Greeks

4. State intolerant of non-sanctioned religions Cult of Isis, Bacchus

Octavian changes name to Caesar Augustus Rules empire as an Emperor Senate remains, but republic is lost

V. Rome in the Augustan Age The Pax Romana, 31 BC AD (CE)

A. Why did Imperial system work in replacing the Republic? 1. Augustus worked within construct of law 2. Emperors could choose successors Augustus, Tiberius: 23 BC - 37 AD five “good Emperors”: Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus, Marcus Aurelius: AD cooperated with the Senate; reformers

***System Augustus set up could survive “bad emperors” Caligula, Claudius, Nero

3. Reform the Senate 4. Build Equestrian class 5. Army reform

6. “Rounded off” the boundaries of the Empire Height of Empire, 116 A.D.

B. Culture of Imperial Rome 1. Augustus hoped to re-instill “republican virtues” 2. Reward soldiers with land 3. Assist urban poor of Rome with food, public works

C. “corruption” of republican virtue 1. In Imperial system, women obtain greater influence - marriage, court intrigue, cults, divorce, eulogies

2. “bad” emperors hated for extravagance Claudius gets a foot rub

3. The longer Rome was ruled by an Emperor, the less possible it was to return to republic - Marcus Aurelius Roman historians of the Imperial Era longed for the old republic, but strains of empire made that impossible
