OverviewExcerpt from Infamia Its Place in Roman Public and Private Law But the first duty of a historian is to restore to their due proportions the different parts of a subject or the various epochs of a period. From a historical stand-point Infamia must be studied as a whole. This is the reason why I have ventured to go over such well-worn ground as the history of the censorship in the Republic and even to trace the feeble survivals of this institution which are met with in the Empire, before investigating the codified institution of imperial times, which has hitherto generally borne the exclusive title of Infamia, but which is in reality only the palest reflection of that rule of manners, ' which supported the dignitas of the free state, and gave it strength to win what the new Monarchy and the later Empire found it so difficult to retain.
