Exploring the political ideology of Republicanism under the Roman
emperors of the first century AD, Sam Wilkinson puts forward the
hypothesis that there was indeed opposition to the political
structure and ideology of the rulers on the grounds of
Republicanism. While some Romans wanted a return to the Republic,
others wanted the emperor to ensure his reign was as close to
Republican moral and political ideology as possible. Analysing the
discourse of the period, the book charts how the view of law,
morality and behaviour changed under the various Imperial regimes
of the first century AD. Uniquely, this book explores how emperors
could choose to set their regime in a more Republican or more
Imperial manner, thus demonstrating it was possible for both the
opposition and an emperor to be Republican. The book concludes by
providing evidence of Republicanism in the first century AD which
not only created opposition to the emperors, but also became part
of the political debate in this period.
