No public action of the Roman state, the populus Romanus, at home or at war, was to be carried out without prior permission from Iuppiter Optimus Maximus. Permission was obtained, in a procedure known as auspices, by the magistrate in charge of the intended action-usually a Consul, Praetor, or Dictator. Auspices thus occupy a fundamental place in the-unwritten-constitution of the Roman State. Yet especially in the 3rd century BCE, acceptance of the principle was not always universal. The Challenge to the Auspices presents an investigation into the interaction of Roman magistrates during the Middle Republic with the practice of auspices, with a focus on attempts to avoid, ignore, or resist this requirement. Proceeding from an examination of the Roman concepts of imperium and auspices (auspicia), especially as they relate to the realm of war, and of the constitutional position and powers of the Dictator and the Master-of-Horse (magister equitum) relative to each other and to the Consuls and lower magistrates, the work offers six case studies in which Roman commanders questioned, violated, or openly rejected the need for auspices. It is argued that these instances reflect a not insignificant minority view within the Roman ruling class regarding the efficacy of auspices and the necessity of observing them. The catastrophic outcome in several of these events, particularly during the early years of the Second Punic War, rendered further resistance to the practice politically unsustainable, and by the second century resulted in its universal acceptance, regardless of personal belief.

Poetry. Art. Photography. { UNTITLED: UNDER THE AUSPICES } is a book of auguring, or divination codex, where birds are the words, in particular the common starling (with a few cameos by seagulls and crows). The sequenced set of flight patterns, or murmurations, were captured over the course of the past few years in the skies over Rome, where the starlings winter in the months of October and November. In the ancient Greek, Egyptian and Roman empires, the will of the gods was determined by "taking the auspices," or interpreting the flight patterns of birds. In fact, Romulus and Remus, the infamous twin brothers raised by a she-wolf, were both augurs. To settle a dispute about where the city of Rome should be founded (Romulus preferred the Palatine hill and Remus preferred the Aventine), they both took auspices and Romulus "won," hence Rome is named for him. The murmurating cross-sections in this book were captured mostly from the loser's Aventine perspective and from along the banks of the Tiber, where Remus and Romulus were born. To preserve the integrity of interpretation, for those "reading" the book, no words or characters were used in the compiling and editing of the birds, only punctuation and numbers. The book itself also contains no title or author, though they are referenced here to meet the metadata demands of this modern world.
