 | | The emperors of the fourth and of the fifth century had to forbid patronage because it constituted a menace to law and to public order. |  | | In the fifth century, however, the office became a burden more than an honour, a quantity of petty police functions and formal supervision was tacked on to it, and the emperors are left no choice but to declare that all notable citizens of the town have to take it in turn. |  | | As to the mode of electing the defensores we notice some variation: they are meant to represent the population at large and originally the people took part in the election, though it had to be confirmed by the emperors. |

 | | The fourth century was also the great age of Athenian judicial and deliberative speechmaking. |  | | With the loss of civic independence, there was no use for a powerful judicial or deliberative oratory in the Greek world. |  | | Rhetoric continued to dominate secondary education; its lists and rules appealed to a Roman preference for the clear-cut, practical, and prescriptive. |

 | | It was not sentimental antiquarianism in the fourteenth century to appeal to the principles of Magna Carta, or to the even-handed justice of St. Louis, or to the civic virtue of the early Florentines. |  | | This is not a short time in terms of human anguish--a man born in 1300 had every reason to be concerned about his own fate and that of his children's children. |  | | As late as the sixth century Gregory, bishop of Tours, prided himself on his senatorial and episcopal ancestry; his predecessor and all but five of the previous bishops of Tours had been connected with his family. |
