ABSTRACT The methodological rigor and acting according to words make Professor Franco Gnoli an example to follow. The scientific vision that can be obtained from his works of the Roman public and criminal law, which he studied in an era where was instead prevalent the interest in private law, paved the way for a broad revisitation of Mommsen’s theoretical approaches. This perspective was and still is highly fruitful because it highlighted the unity of the legal phenomenon in the thought of the Roman jurists. His memory is alive in all the students he trained through his rigorous and passionate lessons in Roman Law and who then followed his footsteps in the Academia.

Abstract The contribution focuses on the publication of Diocletian’s edict on prices in Egypt. A scrap of papyrus, from Oxyrhynchus, PSI. XVII 1685 recto, preserves the initial part of a text that the editor Marco Stroppa has recognized as the draft of a publication edict of a strategos, datable between 293 and 305. The PSI. XVII 1685 recto’s review suggests it is the draft of the publication edict of Diocletian’s tariff: it would be an important testimony, which adds to the law’s publication in Phrygia, by Tiberius Fulvius Asticus. Precisely this edict of the praeses provinciae allows to integrate the surviving lines of PSI. XVII 1685 recto, and to reconstruct the entire text.

L’articolo approfondisce il rapporto tra la letteratura latina e il principato augusteo con attenzione alle elegie romane di Properzio. Vengono prese in esame le trasformazioni del suo genere letterario nel IV libro, ricco di nuovi temi (religiosi, eziologici, morali), sia nel contesto storico-culturale che nel rapporto con gli altri membri del circolo di Mecenate (Virgilio, Orazio), evidenziando anche i possibili influssi dell’autore sul princeps.

Il mito di Roma antica costituisce un efficace strumento propagandistico attraverso il quale il regime fascista giustifica i suoi programmi politici, in particolare quelli riguardanti la costruzione dell’identità nazionale e le aspirazioni coloniali dell’Impero italiano. L’obiettivo di questo articolo è dimostrare come la retorica visuale e linguistica fascista deformi il significato originale dei più noti simboli e rituali del mondo romano, come i fasces, ricostruiti dall’archeologo Giacomo Boni, e la festa del Natalis Urbis, per legittimare ideologicamente la propria autorità.
