Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of the Roman Criminal Law, Vol. 2 of 2 Crdunal charges in Cicero's time were tried almost exclusively by courts which consisted Of a bench of jurymen presided over by a magistrate. This jury system, in which the criminal justice Of the Roman Republic culminates, was gradually built up, borrowing certain elements from each of the forms of procedure which had gone before it. This proposition will be illustrated in detail in the following pages, and I hope to be able at the end of the next chapter to place it in a sufficiently clear light.

Download or read book Problems of the Roman Criminal Law Vol 1 of 2 written by James Leigh Strachan-Davidson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of the Roman Criminal Law, Vol. 1 of 2 This book has developed out of a criticism of Mommsen's Römisches Strafrecht, published in the English Historical Review for April 1902. Paragraphs from that article are by the kind permission of the Editor embedded in these pages. I ventured at the time to prophesy that future workers in the field would necessarily take Mommsen's great treatise as the foundation of their labours. As my work progressed, I have found this more and more true in my own case, and I should wish my book to be regarded as, in the main, a supplement to Mommsen. In the first place the presence of Mommsen's Straf recht absolves me from the task of attempting a complete and systematic account of the Roman Criminal Law; and I am thus enabled to concentrate attention on certain definite problems and difficulties, lying thickly along the main lines of the subject, which seem to call urgently for solution; in dealing with these, however, I have endeavoured to indicate something of a continuous thread of principle and development. In the second place, the narrowing of the field enables me to attempt that which Mommsen declared impossible for himself in the span of life allotted to him, namely, to discuss the arguments and opinions of modem scholars on the various questions in dispute.

Download or read book The Sources of Roman Law written by O. F. Robinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion and understanding of law penetrated society in Ancient Rome to a degree unparalleled in modern times. The poet Juvenal, for instance, described the virtuous man as a good soldier, faithful guardian, incorruptible judge and honest witness. This book is concerned with four central questions: Who made the law? Where did a Roman go to discover what the law was? How has the law survived to be known to us today? And what procedures were there for putting the law into effect? In The Sources of Roman Law, the origins of law and their relative weight are described in the light of developing Roman history. This is a topic that appeals to a wide range of readers: the law student will find illumination for the study of the substantive law; the student of history will be guided into an appreciation of what Roman law means as well as its value for the understanding and interpretation of Roman history. Both will find invaluable the description of how the sources have survived to inform our legal system and pose their problems for us.

Excerpt: ...acknowledged no such rule; had they done so, almost every case would have been covered by the exception, for the advocate seems never to have failed to plead his client's character as an argument for his innocence; there is no occasion, however, for the accuser to wait for any such initiative before he begins his attack on reputation. The Romans of whom we read as appearing before a jury court belong, like their judges, almost exclusively to a small ruling society, inside which it would be comparatively easy (as in the case of our own ancient 'juries from the neighbourhood') for the juror to have a pretty clear impression as to what character the accused really bore; as Cicero says,2 'Quibus igitur testibus ego hosce possum refutare, nisi vobis?' So completely was the character of the accused considered to be a direct and relevant issue, that in the trial of Piso before the Senate for the murder of Germanicus, Fulcinius Trio, who has failed to establish his claim to prosecute on the main charge, is allowed as a consolation 'to bring charges against Piso's former life 3 Nay, so far is the advocate for the defence from objecting, as an English barrister would do, to the introduction of any such prejudicial matter into the case, that Cicero seems to name it as one of the first things which the jury has a right to expect from the prosecutor in opening his case, and he comments severely on its omission. Fonteius must be acquitted because the accuser has not alleged against him any word or deed 'quo significari vestigium libidinis, petulantiae, crudelitatis, audaciae possit'; and his counsel contrasts all the abuse which their accusers had showered even on such men as Rutilius and Piso Frugi. Flaccus was accused of extortion in his province of...
Download or read book Murder Was Not a Crime written by Judy E. Gaughan and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embarking on a unique study of Roman criminal law, Judy Gaughan has developed a novel understanding of the nature of social and political power dynamics in republican government. Revealing the significant relationship between political power and attitudes toward homicide in the Roman republic, Murder Was Not a Crime describes a legal system through which families (rather than the government) were given the power to mete out punishment for murder. With implications that could modify the most fundamental beliefs about the Roman republic, Gaughan's research maintains that Roman criminal law did not contain a specific enactment against murder, although it had done so prior to the overthrow of the monarchy. While kings felt an imperative to hold monopoly over the power to kill, Gaughan argues, the republic phase ushered in a form of decentralized government that did not see itself as vulnerable to challenge by an act of murder. And the power possessed by individual families ensured that the government would not attain the responsibility for punishing homicidal violence. Drawing on surviving Roman laws and literary sources, Murder Was Not a Crime also explores the dictator Sulla's "murder law," arguing that it lacked any government concept of murder and was instead simply a collection of earlier statutes repressing poisoning, arson, and the carrying of weapons. Reinterpreting a spectrum of scenarios, Gaughan makes new distinctions between the paternal head of household and his power over life and death, versus the power of consuls and praetors to command and kill.
