After outlining a brief history of the word dictator from the republican period of Rome to the present, the contribution focuses on the Italic dictatorship as a replacement of the monarchy. The contribution deals with the only two cases clearly found before municipalisation, emphasising the hypothetical nature of the alleged Latin-Etruscan koine: at Caere and Tusculum dictator would be a term mirroring the heterogeneity of the response given by the Italic cities to the problem of gap resulting from the fall of the kingdom. The Italic post-monarchic dictator, an ordinary and supreme magistrate, being a monocratic one, would amount to an ‘extraordinary’ figure compared to the Roman diachical system; likewise, the dictator would be, within such system, an ‘extraordinary’ parenthesis compared to the consuls.

Abstract

After outlining a brief history of the word dictator from the republican period of Rome to the present, the contribution focuses on the Italic dictatorship as a replacement of the monarchy. The contribution deals with the only two cases clearly found before municipalisation, emphasising the hypothetical nature of the alleged Latin-Etruscan koine: at Caere and Tusculum dictator would be a term mirroring the heterogeneity of the response given by the Italic cities to the problem of gap resulting from the fall of the kingdom. The Italic post-monarchic dictator, an ordinary and supreme magistrate, being a monocratic one, would amount to an ‘extraordinary’ figure compared to the Roman diachical system; likewise, the dictator would be, within such system, an ‘extraordinary’ parenthesis compared to the consuls.
