Infamy. Criminal Ancient Rome

In his new book, Professor Jerry Toner, a remarkable researcher of the ancient world and bestselling author, examines the forms and content of crime in the Roman Empire. Drawing on numerous sources - both widely known and archival - the author reveals the socio-economic reasons that drove people from different walks of life to crime. In Toner's field of vision - the types and composition of offenses in antiquity, as well as the consequences that awaited in those times robbers and murderers - from execution in the gladiatorial arena to a life sentence of ignominy. Particular attention is paid to the evolution of Roman law, which in its finished form would become the foundation of Western civilization. The comprehensive approach and popular style of presentation allow us to recommend the edition to specialists - lawyers and historians - and to the widest range of readers.
