Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book by a prominent historian in German scholarship, explores the political trial of Gaius Rabirius, known as the perduellio, for the murder of a tribune of the plebs over three decades earlier. The perduellio was an archaic Roman procedure for crimes against the state, only to be revived in particular cases when deemed politically expedient. The author delves into the legal, historical and political milieu of Rome in the first century BC, to present a detailed reconstruction of Gaius Rabirius' trial, to argue that the case was politically motivated to weaken the influence of Pompey and Crassus in the senate. The book's significance lies in its insights into the complex political machinations and power struggles shaping the Roman Republic in the latter half of the first century BC.
