ISTORIA FEMININĂ A DINASTIEI IULIO-CLAUDIENE

Abstract

As a result of the research, I came to the conclusion that the involvement of women in creation of the political image was an innovative point in the Augustin dynasty propaganda. The Julio – Claudine women seemed to be granted with a more wide range of privileges, power and influence than their female counterparts from other centuries. With all this, the patriarchal structure maintained it’s position. They didn’t exert a direct political role, but, usually from behind the curtain, their influence was overwhelming. The attitude towards this first ruling family of Rome was mixed: they meant legitimacy, but the same time, they brought the memory of some experiences which should not be repeated.
