%0 Journal Article %T La fama nellĄŻordinamento romano. I casi di Afrania e di Lucrezia %A Tiziana J. Chiusi %J Storia delle Donne %D 2011 %I Firenze University Press %X The article starts from an examination of statutory and pretorian law on the legal elements of infamia and ignominia. In this context it sheds light on the influence of the censorĄŻs control activity on the social and legal phenomenon of fama. The results thus obtained are verified by the analysis of two types of women, Afrania and Lucretia, both actors and, although in different ways, Ą°victimsĄ± of their own fama. However, while Afrania remains a prisoner of the mechanism of fama, Lucretia is able to use it successfully. %K fama %K infamia %K ignominia %K postulare pro alios %K Afrania %K Lucrezia %K Schuldkultur/Schamkultur %K figure eroiche %K reputation %K infamy %K ignominy %K heroic personages %U http://ejour-fup.unifi.it/index.php/sdd/article/view/9608
