- W66152466 abstract "According to a popular Roman saying, a man's will was the mirror of his character1). How true this would be of a man who, on his deathbed, looked back over his life as a stage-play, depends upon how cynically the saying is to be interpreted. Augustus certainly continued playing in his last public act the role he had played throughout his life. His will, which closely adheres to the form used by those of his fellow citizens, is most reminiscent of his Res Gestae), in that it combines pride in his stunning accomplishments with reassurance that they continue the best of Roman traditions. The form is ostentatiously normal, following both law and custom in what it includes and excludes, in the order in which it is laid out, and in the opinions it expresses and how it expresses them. It must be read in the light of the testamentary law and custom that produced it, and in that light it looks rather extraordinary. The Roman will was a highly formal legal ceremony per aes et libram, the mere written record of which came to replace the act. Inheritance law was easily the major legal concern of both Roman" @default.
