Servius, Cicero and the Res Publica of Justinian
View through CrossRef
Cicero’s correspondence with Servius after the death of Tullia
justifies cultural attitudes which denied legal agency to the
populus;Servius’ juristic successors also perpetuated the role of elite
legal thinkers as “procurators” and Pomponius’ history of jurisprudence did not acknowledge the transition from ‘Republic” to Empire, which removed constitutional agency from the populus.
Servius, Cicero and the successor jurists thus paved the way for
the res publica of the autocrat Justinian.
