I, Tiberius Cornelius Scipio, humbly present
my candidacy for the position of Censor. 
 
My fellow citizen aspiring to the same post, undoubtedly have more experience
than I do; however, I bring a fresh perspective into the office, and if elected,
I will set an example of cooperation, compromise and moderation. 
 
My personal qualifications are as follow: I hold a Master Degree on Management
of Information Systems, a B.A. in Business and in Political Science. For the
last 15 years I have been a manager of projects and I have worked in the
Americas (North, Central and South), Africa and Europe. Again, I may not be too
experienced as my fellow citizen on the ballot, but I have a solid track-record
of meeting deadlines, accomplishing tasks and team-building in organizations to
achieve success. 
 
Aside from my lacking Censorial experience, or my solid personal qualifications,
I stand before you guaranteed by neither, but I stand moved by my passion for
Roman history and traditions, and is my intention, if elected, to commit on
contributing to the growth and expansion of our res publica. 
 
I ask you for your support in this election, I will not let you down.

Rape of Lucretia

Tiberius Cornelius Scipio:

{{LanguageBar| The Rape of Lucretia }}

[[Category:Religio Romana]] [[Category:Via Romana]]

==The story as told by Livy <ref>[[Livy]], ''Ab Urbe Condita'' 1:57-58</ref> ==

In the time of king [[Kings of Rome|Tarquinius Superbus]], the Romans were laying siege to Ardea, in the territory of the Rutulians. One day, some of the young leaders of the Roman army were boasting about the virtues of their wives, each claiming to have the best. They decided to ride their horses to secretly observe their wives. In Rome they saw that the daughters-in-law of the king were enjoying a lavish dinner-party. In Collatia, however, Lucretia, wife of Collatinus Tarquinius, (son of Egerius), was up in the middle of the night with her servants, working wool. Collatinus and the others were welcomed into the house, among them Sextus Tarquinius, son of the king.

A few days later, Sextus Tarquinius secretly returned to the house of Collatinus Tarquinius, where he was given dinner and lodging by Lucretia. Late at night, the prince entered Lucretia's room, and attempted to rape her. She resisted until he threateded to kill both her and a slave, and make it seem that she had been killed when caught in an act of audultery. Rather than leave this legacy of dishonor for her husband, she relented.

As soon as Sextus Tarquinius had left, Lucretia sent urgent messages to her father, [[Lucretius|Spurius Lucretius]], and to her husband, telling them to come to her in haste, as a terrible thing had happened. Her father came with Publius Valerius and her husband arrived with [[Lucius Junius Brutus]]. Lucretia tearfully told what had happened and asked each of the men to seek revenge. The men tried to console her, calling her blameless, as force had been used. She, however, prefered death to even a hint of dishonor and, pulling a dagger from her clothes, took her own life.

In the first moment of grief and shock, Brutus pulled out the bloody dagger and swore to avenge Lucretia and all others who had been wronged by the king, stopping at nothing short of the expulsion of the king from Rome. Collatinus, Lucretius and Valerius joined in his oath and then they carried the body of Lucretia to the forum. There, the words and passion of these men inflamed a band to march to Rome. Collatia was garrisoned and the armed band left for Rome, led by Brutus.

In Rome, some of the leading men joined the band and there Brutus again spoke of the terrible crime commited by prince, and all the other outrages suffered by the people under king Tarquinius Superbus. The people decided to expel the king and banish his family. A band led by Brutus was sent to the army at Ardea, to take control in place of the king; Lucretius, who had already been appointed prefect, was left in command in Rome.

When news reached the king in Ardea, he left for Rome, but the gates were closed against him. He went into exile in Caere in Etruria with some of his family. Sextus Tarquinius was killed by some of his old enemies. In this way the reign of kings was brought to an end in Rome.

Italia, Alemania y España. Antes que el año 2008 termine, mi lista de lugares

históricos romanos). Siento que visitar ciertos lugares te conecta con quienes
hayan habitado esas áreas antes. Que mejor forma de conectarse con la historia
que sacándome los zapatos, cerrando mis ojos y dejando que la imaginación me
lleve? …bueno, no me fue tan bien una vez que unos muchachos me escondieron los
zapatos… imagínense. 
Lo que estoy tratando de decir es que me siento muy feliz de estar aquí entre
