In this context, the relevance of the undertaken research is obvious. The author sets himself the goal of studying in detail the internally contradictory essence of such a phenomenon as Roman sumptuary laws. In particular, he draws attention to the conventional nature of the term “sumptuary laws” used in Russian-language literature, which does not accurately convey the meaning of the Latin phrase leges sumptuariae. The study draws on a range of Latin texts and other sources, as well as an extensive research literature. As a result, the author comes to the following conclusions: firstly, if the word luxus was associated with phenomena introduced into the life of the Roman civil community by the Hellenistic civilization and resulting from the military activity of Rome in the south of Italy and beyond, then the term sumptus was associated with the original Roman ideas about moderation and frugality, which must be considered, first of all, in the context of the life of the familia and its economic activities. Secondly, if the term luxus reflected the concept of luxury as such, then the use of the word sumptus was associated with housekeeping in general and with the concept of expenses in particular.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В последние десятилетия в антиковедении активно изучаются римские законы о роскоши, которые традиционно связываются с теорией «упадка нравов»: согласно этой теории кризис римского государства был обусловлен процессом разложения традиционных норм и ценностей под воздействием чужеземных нравов, роскоши и богатства. В этом контексте очевидна актуальность предпринятого исследования. Автор ставит перед собой цель изучить в деталях внутренне противоречивую суть такого феномена, как римские законы о роскоши. В частности, он обращает внимание на условный характер употребляемого в русскоязычной литературе термина «законы о роскоши», недостаточно точно передающего смысл латинского словосочетания leges sumptuariae. В исследовании использованы ряд латинских текстов и другие источники, а также обширная исследовательская литература. В итоге автор приходит к следующим выводам: во-первых, если слово luxus ассоциировалось с явлениями, привнесенными в жизнь римской гражданской общины эллинистической цивилизацией и ставшими следствием военной активности Рима на юге Италии и за ее пределами, то термин sumptus был связан с исконно римскими представлениями об умеренности и бережливости, которые необходимо рассматривать прежде всего в контексте жизни familia и ее хозяйственной деятельности. Во-вторых, если термин luxus отражал понятие роскоши как таковой, то употребление слова sumptus было связано с ведением хозяйства в целом и с понятием расходов в частности.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>ancient Rome</kwd><kwd>sumptuary laws</kwd><kwd>ancient economy</kwd><kwd>civitas</kwd><kwd>familia</kwd><kwd>sumptus</kwd><kwd>luxus</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>древний Рим</kwd><kwd>законы о роскоши</kwd><kwd>античная экономика</kwd><kwd>civitas</kwd><kwd>familia</kwd><kwd>sumptus</kwd><kwd>luxus</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Kvashnin VA.
