1710 KEYNOTE ADDRESS<br>
Paul du Plessis, University of Edinburgh,<br>
‘Female Patrons in Roman Law’<br>
ABSTRACT: The Roman jurists frequently discussed legal aspects of the relationship between patron and client. In most of these discussions, judging by the language employed, the jurists treat the patron as male. In a handful of legal texts, however, female
patrons are specifically mentioned. This paper will focus on one of the scenarios where the gender of the patron is legally relevant. In doing so, I will propose a context-based approach to the legal relationship between patron and client.<br>
