EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic image captures the momentous occasion when the plebeians of Ancient Rome were admitted to consular dignity, marking a significant shift in the political landscape of the Roman Republic. The plebeians, who made up the majority of the Roman population, had long been excluded from holding the highest offices of state, which were reserved for the patricians. The year was 378 BC, and the plebeians, tired of their subordinate status, had gone on strike, refusing to perform their military duties. Faced with the prospect of a potential uprising, the patricians were forced to negotiate. The resulting agreement, known as the Plebeian Law or the Plebeian Secession, granted the plebeians the right to elect their own magistrates, known as plebeian consuls, who would serve alongside the patrician consuls. This print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, depicts the plebeians being admitted to the Curia, the Senate House, where they would take their oaths of office. The scene is filled with a sense of triumph and jubilation, as the plebeians, dressed in their simple tunics, proudly march into the hallowed halls of power. The patricians, dressed in their togas, look on with a mixture of awe and apprehension, as they witness the beginning of a new era in Roman democracy. This event was a turning point in Roman history, paving the way for a more inclusive and representative form of government. It also marked the beginning of the end of the Roman monarchy and the rise of the Republic. The plebeians' admission to consular dignity was a testament to their determination and resilience, and it remains an inspiring example of the power of the people to demand and achieve change.
