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."
