Roman Criminal Cognitio Extra Ordinem: Accusation

Università degli Studi di Padova invites applications for a research position in Juridical sciences. The project examines the structure and function of accusation in the cognito extra ordinem of the classical period, highlighting differences from the accusatory model of the quaestiones.

The research analyzes who may accuse, initiation and conduct, magistrate powers, and the balance between private initiative and public authority.
