D H Berry

Cicero's Catilinarians

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this, the first book-length discussion of Cicero's Catilinarians, D. H. Berry considers how the speeches should be interpreted as literature. Can we treat them as representing what Cicero actually said? Or do we have to read them merely as political pamphlets from a later time?
