"In modern times there have been studies of the Roman Republican institutions as a whole as well as in-depth analyses of the senate, the popular assemblies, the tribunate of the plebs, the aedileship, the praetorship and the censorship. However, the consulship, the highest magistracy of the Roman Republic, has not received the same attention from scholars. The purpose of this book is to analyse the tasks that consuls performed in the civil sphere during their term of office between the years 367 and 50 BC, using the preserved ancient sources as its basis. In short, it is a study of the consuls 'at work', both within and outside the city of Rome, in such varied fields as religion, diplomacy, legislation, jurisdiction, colonisation, elections, and day-to-day politics. Clearly and accessibly written, it will provide an indispensable reference work for all scholars and students of the history of the Roman Republic"-- "The Consul at Rome In modern times there have been studies of the Roman Republican institutions as a whole as well as in-depth analyses of the senate, the popular assemblies, the tribunate of the plebs, the aedileship, the praetorship and the censorship.

"The consulate was the focal point of Roman politics. Both the ruling class and the ordinary citizens fixed their gaze on the republic's highest office--to be sure, from different perspectives and with differing expectations. While the former aspired to the consulate as the defining magistracy of their social status, the latter perceived it as the embodiment of the Roman state. Holding high office was thus not merely a political exercise. The consulate prefigured all aspects of public life, with consuls taking care of almost every aspect of the administration of the Roman state. This multifaceted character of the consulate invites a holistic investigation. The scope of this book is therefore not limited to political or constitutional questions. Instead, it investigates the predominant role of the consulate in, and its impact on, the political culture of the Roman republic"--

En 1987, paraissaient dans la Collection de l’EFR les actes d’un colloque fondateur : L’Urbs,espace urbain et histoire. Parce qu’il mit en dialogue les potentialités offertes par les progrès de la topographie historique de la ville de Rome et l’histoire urbaine de celle-ci, ce livre bouleversa nos connaissances. L’année suivante, disparaissait un éminent représentant de la topographie historique : Ferdinando Castagnoli. S’il ne put participer au colloque de 1985, F. Castagnoli avait été l’un des acteurs majeurs des renouvellements qui avaient conduit à son organisation. À trente ans d’écart, le présent livre, lui-même le fruit d’un colloque tenu à Rome en 2018, analyse l’héritage laissé par chacun, mesure le chemin parcouru et ouvre de nouvelles voies à la recherche en archéologie et en histoire urbaine sur la ville éternelle.
