The course aims to clarify how the Roman system actually worked in practice and how Rome’s legal mechanism, formal rules, and institutional structures emerged out of a specific social context. The course is divided into three sections: Monarchy; Republic; Principate. The course is completed by a module dedicated to the knowledge of the main research tools in Roman Law and to the analysis of the legal lexicon, investigated through the examination of a case study.
