Some would expand this to outsiders. They could exploit intelligence, tact, sexuality, and charm. Moralizing sources focus on conciliation, intercession, and intervention by women from legendary times onwards. Clodia worked with and for her brother. Under the triumvirate, women were forced to take a greater role. Some (e.g. Iulia, Mucia) were related to the main contenders for power, and acted as intermediaries in the interests of their kinsmen and of peace. Fulvia, with her own power base in the City, acted with greater independence in public life than any other woman, but in the interests of her son and Antony. An extreme case, she illustrates what a women could achieve and what a woman was not supposed to do. Servilia’s influence on politics and society was more like that of Iulia, Mucia, or Octavia.

Caesar spared and employed ex-Pompeians, including Brutus and Cassius. Life in Italy was unsettled. Caesar was popular with the People, but many in the senatorial class accused him of behaving like a tyrant, a king, and a master of slaves. Brutus made a political statement by taking Porcia, Cato’s daughter, as his new wife. Servilia did not get on with her. Brutus joined the conspiracy led by C. Cassius and D. Brutus. The plotters’ motives were mixed. Servilia probably knew nothing.
