Not illustrated. 1881 Excerpt: ...sprung up among themselves based upon the holding of these offices. Those families of which a member had held a curule office were 'nobiles, ' the rest 'ignobiles, ' and he in whose person such dignity was first attained was called, originally no doubt through the contempt of the patricians, but afterwards conventionally by all, 'novns homo.' The Decia gens was plebeian.--eensorqae moveret Appiui The Appios who is here taken-the type of severe censorship is Appius Claudius Coccus, the constructor of the road and aqueduct that bore his name.

Horace is using the name of Appiua u an instance of a severe censor, who would eject tho sons of Hbertini from the senate; and the Appius of B.c. 704 did eject them, as we are told, and the old censor Appins admitted them. Still, a Horace names Lnevinus and Uecius, it is possible that the famous old censor was in his thoughts, and not the modern Appius. Horace's history may sometimes be no better than his geography. It was the province of the Censors, till that office was merged iu tlie imperial power, to supply vacancies in the senate from the list of those who were eligible. But they could also, in revising the list of senators, degrade those who had previously been in the senate, as well... Read Less
