What is The Senate of Imperial Rome about?

Richard J. A. Talbert examines the composition, procedure, and functions of the Roman senate during the Principate (30 B.C.-A.D. 238). Although it is of central importance to the period, this great council has not previously received such scholarly treatment. Offering a fresh approach to major ancient authors (Pliny and Tacitus in particular), the book also draws on inscriptions and legal writers never before fully exploited for the study of the senate. <p>This political history shows the significance of the Roman Senate and its viability as a part of the governing empire during the Imperial period. </p>
