By taking public space as its starting point, this book looks afresh at the ever-fluid public/private divide in Republican Rome. A behavioural approach built on the spatial turn and incorporating both textual and archaeological evidence uncovers public spaces at least as rich and varied as those found inside the Roman house. Public space was saturated with and determined by the private; and overlapping categories such as political, sacred, and foreign left grey areas and room for manipulation. Public space belonged to the populus, the citizen body: so how did women, slaves, and non-citizens experience it? How did the grandiose individual aspirations of Republican dynasts relate to the supposedly communal public realm? From the Forum to the victory temples of the Campus Martius, and culminating in Pompey's great theatre-portico-temple-garden-house complex, The Politics of Public Space in Republican Rome explores how public space was marked, experienced, and defined by multiple actors and audiences.
