KlappentextLe présent ouvrage offre la première analyse du viol des femmes nubiles (raptus virginum) dans la Rome antique ; un sujet sur lequel les sources juridiques conservées dans le Digeste de Justinien nous renseignent très peu et non sans équivoque. L'objectif est de révéler les pratiques intellectuelles et argumentatives qui ont amené à l'émergence du crime de viol (crimen raptus) dans l'école de rhétorique du Pseudo-Quintilien (tournant du Ier siècle de n. è.), en amont de sa normalisation comme crime violent (crimen vis) par la jurisprudence de l'âge sévérien (début du IIIe siècle de n. è.). Pour ce faire, l'auteur examine de façon approfondie les aspects les plus saillants du système de principes et de règles, dans lequel le Pseudo-Quintilien inscrit le concept des violences de nature sexuelle : la définition de l'acte illicite, l'application de la procédure, la fonction des peines, le sens de la loi, la notion de responsabilité pénale et la question controversée du consentement de la victime. Bénéficiant d'un cadre épistémologique diversifié, l'ouvrage réalise une synthèse critique entre l'approche traditionnelle dogmatique et l'anthropologie du droit, pour répondre de façon innovatrice aux questions considérées par les historiens qui se sont occupés du thème du viol à Rome comme fermées ou futiles.
This book offers the first analysis of the rape of women of marriageable age (raptus virginum) in ancient Rome. This is a subject about which the legal sources preserved in Justinian's Digest provide us with very little, and not unequivocal, information. The aim is to reveal the intellectual and argumentative practices that led to the emergence of the crime of rape (crimen raptus) in Pseudo-Quintilian's school of rhetoric (turn of the first century AD), prior to its normalisation as a violent crime (crimen vis) by the jurisprudence of the Severan age (beginning of the third century AD). To this end, the author examines in depth the most salient aspects of the system of principles and rules into which Pseudo-Quintilian places the concept of sexual violence: the definition of the unlawful act, the application of the procedure, the function of penalties, the meaning of the law, the notion of criminal responsibility and the controversial issue of the victim's consent. Drawing on a diversified epistemological framework, the book achieves a critical synthesis between the traditional dogmatic approach and the anthropology of law, providing innovative answers to questions regarded by historians who have dealt with the subject-matter of rape in Rome as closed or futile.
