Writing Assignment –

Write a Narrative of the End of the Roman Republic. Your
narrative should include all of the people and events listed below and should
end by explaining the end of the Roman Republic. Be sure to answer both of the
below points:

1. How did a combination
of inter-class conflict (patrician vs. plebeian) and a series of rising
military strongmen — culminating in first Julius and then Octavian/Augustus
Caesar — contribute to the fall of the Roman Republic?

2. In your considered
opinion did structural problems (economic
inequality, class division, land ownership patterns, etc.) or individuals (Sulla,
Pompey, J. Caesar, Augustus, etc.) contribute more to the eventual end of the
Republic?

The work should be double-spaced, in 12-pitch Arial or
Times New Roman font, and at least two full pages in length with one-inch
margins all around.

Focus on how each person’s actions or each event leads to
the next person’s actions or event. In other words,
you should be telling the story or narrative of the end of the Republic.
This means that you must go beyond defining or describing each event to showing
how one leads to the next. You might start by discussing Rome’s economic
problems and how the Gracchus brothers attempted to address them. Then
move on to the others. Be sure to end with the assassination of Caesar
and why that ended the Republic

Background:

It has been suggested
that the end of the Roman Republic began with economic problems following from
the end of Roman conquests. These problems became political problems and
at this train of events ended with Caesar’s assassination and the end of the
Republic.
Is that the
case? Based upon the readings and video, write a brief narrative of the
End of the Republic.

Assignment:

Your narrative should
start with the economic problems besetting Rome that led to the actions taken
by the Gracchus Brothers and includes explanations of ALL of the following. It
is appropriate to include a paragraph that explains your understanding of why
the Republic came to an end and was replaced by the dictatorial Roman Empire.

§ Gracchus Brothers
§ Optimates and Populares
§ Marius
§ Sulla
§ Civil War
§ Julius Caesar
§ Assassination
§ End of the Republic
