Abstract
In what terms and to what extent the prepubescent is called to answer for the consequences of illicit acts has been the subject of legal reflection since ancient times and is a theme marked by complex and non rigid profiles. Roman law contemplates ever increasing degrees of awareness in acting and for the effect it estimates differently, from birth to puberty, the manifestation of will for the purposes of imputation of the illicit act. This is also due to the peculiar nature of the crime committed. Adultery, due to the implications with the very essence of Romanity protected by the legal system and due to the biological characteristics essential for the consummation, stands out from other illicit acts quoniam tale crimen post pubertatem incipit.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
