Roman Voting Assemblies

Lily Ross Taylor was professor of Classics at Bryn Mawr College. The author of many books and articles on Roman history and culture, in her lifetime she received numerous honors and awards, including the American Philological Association's Award of Merit. Among the posts she held were the presidency of the American Philological Association, the vice-presidency of the Archaeological Institute of America, and membership in the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.

Cautious and firm in judgment, never obfuscating, Lily Ross Taylor presents the evidence, literary, inscriptional, and numismatic, and illuminates all the ways and byways of the balloting in Republican Rome. And as the right to vote and voting procedure are central issues in every republican system, Roman Voting Assemblies has been for years an indispensable guide and companion of every student of Rome. It is a classic." —Jerzy Linderski, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
