Merge Cliens discuss Talk Cliens date July 2009 In ancient Roman society, a client Latin language Latin , cliens was a plebeian who was sponsored by a patron benefactor patronus , a predecessor to the Italian padrino , godparent godfather . The patron assisted his client with his protection and regular gifts the client dedicated his vote whenever the patron or his associate was up for election. This right of patronage was established by Romulus , to unite the plebians and the Patrician ancientRome patrician s together, in such a manner that one might live without envy, and the other without contempt. However, the condition of a client, over the course of time, became little else but a moderate kind of slavery . By degrees, the custom extended itself beyond Rome and not only families, but cities, and entire provinces, even out of the Italian Peninsula , followed the example. Thus, Sicily , for example, put itself under the clientela , or protection of Marcus Claudius Marcellus . Wolfgang Lazius Lazius and Guillaume Bud Budaeus refer the origin of fief s and tenure s to the patrons and clients of AncientRome however, the difference between the relation of vassal s and their lord s, and that of clients and their patrons, is fairly considerable. In addition to the respect a client showed his patron, and the vote he gave him, a vassal was also obliged to assist his lord in all affairs and even pay his ransom, if he should be taken prisoner of war , in the case that the lord was not able to provide it himself. The Latin word cliens is formed of the earlier cluens , hearing , in the sense that such an individual is at the call of his patron. References 1728 Client . Oxford English Dictionary .

other uses Athenaeum disambiguation The Athenaeum was a school Ludus ancientRome ludus founded by the Emperor Hadrian in Rome, for the promotion of literary and scientific studies ingenuarum artium and called Athenaeum from the town of Athens, which was still regarded as the seat of intellectual refinement. The Athenaeum was situated near the Capitoline hill its site was discovered in 2009 during excavation for the construction of the RomeRome Metro C Line , in the middle of what is now Piazza Venezia . A staff of professors, for the various branches of study, was regularly engaged. Under Theodosius II , for example, there were three orators, ten grammarians, five sophists, one philosopher, two lawyers, or jurisconsults. Besides the instruction given by these magistri, poets, orators, and critics were accustomed to recite their compositions there, and these prelections were sometimes honoured with the presence of the emperors themselves. There were other places where such recitations were made, as the Library of Trajan sometimes also a room was hired, and made into an auditorium. The Athenaeum seems to have continued in high repute till the fifth century. Little is known of the details of study or discipline in the Athenaeum, but in the constitution of the year 370, there are some regulations respecting students in Rome, from which it would appear that it must have been a very extensive and important institution. And this is confirmed by other statements contained in some of the Fathers and other ancient authors, from which we learn that young men from all parts, after finishing their usual school and college studies in their own town or province, used to resort to Rome as a sort of higher university, for the purpose of completing their education.
