Excerpt from Histoire de la Contrainte par Corps
Avec Tarquin revint l'usage du nexmn; mais cette législation cessa momentanément d'être pratiquée avec la même barbarie. Le rôle des riches avait changé. De rivaux du pouvoir monarchique qu'ils avaient été sous les pre miers rois, ils étaient devenus, sous le despotisme de fer de Tarquin, les esclaves de la monarchie. C'était donc le tour du sénat de se faire le courtisan du peuple. Telle fut la politique intéressée qui valut aux débiteurs quelques années d'un sort moins rigoureux; et, par un singulier contre-coup c'est à l'extrême tyrannie du prince que le peuple dut un soulagement à ses maux.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, from an acclaimed legal scholar, provides an exhaustive historical overview of laws in ancient Rome that allowed creditors to enforce the collection of debts from debtors through physical constraint. The author traces this practice from its origins and examines how it evolved over the years. The book places the evolution of debt collection within the broader context of the social, economic, and political transformations that Rome underwent over the centuries, establishing a relationship between the harshness of debt collection and the concentration of wealth in the hands of a privileged few. The author also engages critically with prior scholarship and theories regarding the evolution of debt collection in Roman law, offering fresh perspectives and challenging long-held assumptions. Through its comprehensive examination of the subject, this book offers valuable insights into the legal, cultural, and economic history of ancient Rome, making it an important contribution to our understanding of the evolution of law and social relations in antiquity.
