The Tribal Assembly<span> or </span>Assembly of the People<span> (</span>comitia populi tributa<span>) of the </span>Roman Republic<span> was an assembly consisting of all Roman citizens convened by the tribes (tributim). During the </span>Roman Republic<span>, citizens were organized on the basis of 35 </span>tribes: four urban tribes of the citizens in the city of Rome, and 31 rural tribes of citizens outside the city. The tribes gathered in the Tribal Assembly to vote on legislative, judicial and electoral matters. Each tribe voted separately and one after the other. In each tribe, decisions were made by majority vote and its decision counted as one vote regardless of how many electors each tribe held. Once a majority of tribes voted in the same way on a given measure, the voting ended and the matter was decided.[1]<span> The president of the Tribal Assembly was usually either a "</span>consul" or a "praetor<span>"</span>
"The Lottery" is a short story written by Shirley Jackson, first published in the June 26, 1948, issue of The New Yorker.
The story describes a fictional small town in contemporary America, which observes an annual rite known as "the lottery", in which a member of the community is selected by chance to be stoned to death. It is implied in the story that the lottery is practiced to ensure the community's continued well being.
Readers' initial negative response surprised both Jackson and The New Yorker: subscriptions were cancelled, and much hate mail was received throughout the summer of its first publication, while the Union of South Africa banned the story.
The story has been dramatized several times and subjected to much sociological and literary analysis, and has been described as one of the most famous short stories in the history of American literature.[4]
