About this title

Synopsis

Explore Cicero’s public life through eleven stirring orations, supported by expert notes and vocabulary.

This scholarly edition presents Cicero’s speeches in chronological order, paired with a thoughtful Introduction that frames Rome’s late Republic and the orator’s role within it. Rich with notes on rhetoric, structure, and key passages, plus a focused vocabulary section, this edition helps readers grasp both the language and the historical context.

The book combines the speeches with a robust guide to history and rhetoric. The introduction outlines the political landscape of late Rome, explains how the orations fit Cicero’s career, and highlights how the notes illuminate rhetoric without losing the drama of the moment. Included are maps, photographs, and illustrations that bring the era to life, along with an apparatus of introductions and explanatory notes tailored for study.

Learn how each speech reflects Cicero’s political and legal concerns, from defending allies to challenging rivals
See how rhetorical techniques are used to persuade, organize arguments, and engage the Senate and people
Explore a guided path through the life and times of Rome’s greatest orator, with careful vocabulary and helpful notes
Access illustrations and maps that give you a tangible sense of Roman places, people, and events

Ideal for students and general readers who want a clear, structured way to read Cicero, understand Roman politics, and study classical rhetoric.
