Synopsis
"Select Orations: With English Notes" by Marcus Tullius Cicero is a scholarly edition that assembles a rich editorial apparatus around Cicero’s works. It includes an editorial preface and apparatus describing the edition, notes on sources, and its aims for undergraduate study. It features a long “Life of Cicero” in dialogue form, outlining his birth at Arpinum, education, exile, recall, consulship, major prosecutions (Verres, Roscius), political alliances (Pompey, Caesar), and his later writings. It surveys Cicero’s rhetorical writings—De Inventione, De Oratore, Brutus, and related treatises—noting debated authorship and the value of these works. An introduction to Cicero’s orations leads into the four Catiline orations (Oratio I–IV) with contextual framing and thematic summaries. The volume emphasizes republican virtue, the ethics of power, rhetoric’s role in politics, and the tension between private ambition and public duty, placing Catiline’s conspiracy within a tradition of republican oratory and political crisis. It features extensive notes, textual variants, and cross-references to primary sources, making it a comprehensive entry point for study of late Republican Rome."
