Description

This book is about the famous Roman orator and statesman Cicero and his rhetorical and political strategy as a newcomer in Roman republican politics.

Henriette van der Blom argues that Cicero advertised himself as a follower of chosen models of behaviour from the past - his role models - and in turn presented himself as a role model to others.

This new angle provides fresh insights into the political and literary career of one of the best-known Romans, and into thepolitical discourse of the late Roman Republic.
