The Asamatoria by Augustus

In 31, b, c, e, octavian finally defeats mark antony and cleopatra. And so augustus sets about building up the new system. But of course, it's not just about that - there is also a moral programme. Augustus sees part of rome's problem as being instability in family life. In particular, i think he is concerned about the way roman women are behaving. The marriage legislation is directed towards controlling the behaviour of married women. Ours amatory isiis normally translated as art of love. So you could call it technique of love, erotic skill, something like that.
