    octavo, unbound, uncut, (front cover detached and faded, numerous spots and foxing), 374 p.
    Freed from the constraints of a subject that was intended to be the focus of separate studies but never published, particularly regarding the acquisition of citizenship and the advantages associated with it, the author devotes this entire work to the outward signs that proclaimed Roman citizenship: clothing (the toga), language (Latin, though this was not exclusive to this distinction), and above all, the name. The latter is divided into three groups: the praenomen (first name), the nomen gentilitium (second name), also known as the "family name," and the cognonem (family name), which signifies individuality.
