Beginning with Tiberius Gracchus in 133 and moving through the periods of leadership of Gaius Gracchus and Gaius Marius, the thesis will argue that land reform was a keynote issue over a fifty year period of Roman History, during which the land reform movement and its leaders effected great changes in procedures of governance at Rome, the military system of Rome, and Rome's relations to its Allies. As well, the thesis will argue that the land reform movement laid the foundation for the later deconstruction of the republican system at Rome.iv, 97 p.140844 bytes567155 bytesapplication/pdfapplication/pdfen-USBaylor University theses are protected by copyright.
