What Roman Law Did to Adulteresses: The Lex Julia de Adulteriis Punishment
In ancient Rome, adultery was not just a personal betrayal—it was a crime that could lead to severe consequences. Under the Lex Julia de Adulteriis, a law established in 18 BCE by Emperor Augustus, those found guilty of adultery faced harsh punishments. The law targeted both men and women, but its enforcement was disproportionately severe for women, reflecting the patriarchal nature of Roman society.
This documentary explores the Lex Julia de Adulteriis, detailing how Roman law viewed adultery as a threat to family honor and the moral fabric of society. We’ll uncover the punishments meted out to adulteresses, including exile, confiscation of property, and, in extreme cases, death. Roman men, in contrast, faced far fewer penalties, highlighting the gender disparities inherent in Roman law.
Through legal texts, historical accounts, and modern analysis, we examine how the law shaped Roman society’s attitudes toward marriage, morality, and women’s rights. We also explore the broader implications of the Lex Julia on Roman women’s autonomy and the legacy of this law in shaping legal systems in subsequent civilizations.
