Résumé 0

This paper investigates the performance of trials by Roman magistrates outside the borders of the empire. It is contended that these occasions induced heightened reflection on the part of Roman authors about the ideological work performed by judicial rituals. The fulsome accounts of such trials grant interpretive insight into the work that Romans understood legal institutions to perform in provincial contexts, albeit their routinized nature in those contexts occasioned much less commentary from ancient authors.
