This book highlights the role played by public, political
discourse in shaping the distribution of power between Senate and People
in the Late Roman Republic. Against the background of the debate
between 'oligarchical' and 'democratic' interpretations of Republican
politics, Robert Morstein-Marx emphasizes the perpetual negotiation and
reproduction of political power through mass communication. The book
analyses the ideology of Republican mass oratory and situates its
rhetoric fully within the institutional and historical context of the
public meetings (contiones) in which these speeches were heard. Examples
of contional orations, drawn chiefly from Cicero and Sallust, are
subjected to an analysis that is influenced by contemporary political
theory and empirical studies of public opinion and the media, rooted in a
detailed examination of key events and institutional structures, and
illuminated by a vivid sense of the urban space in which the contio was
set.
