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.
