Selected Political Speeches

Amazon

4.5(87)

This Cicero selection presents speeches shaped by elections, trials, conspiracy and factional struggle in the late Republic. The volume shows rhetoric as an instrument of political survival, where public language could defend constitutional order, attack enemies and expose the fragility of republican legality.
