Paperback / softback

Description

Cicero’s great polemic against Antony, a literary masterpiece, is here made available with full translation and notes.

The introduction to this edition deals with the historical setting, Roman rhetoric and Cicero’s style while the notes are mainly literary, not historical.

Attention is paid to Cicero’s use of the devices and techniques of rhetoric, and the variety of tones by which he sustains his attack on Antony without ever losing the reader’s interest.

The notes also draw attention to the rhythms of the Latin and the clausulae.

Latin text with facing-page English translation, introduction and commentary.
