Cicero's Four Orations Against Catiline: Also The Oration For the Poet Archias, For The Manilian Law, And For Marcellus (1905) is a collection of speeches by the Roman statesman and orator, Marcus Tullius Cicero. The book includes four speeches that Cicero gave against the Roman senator Lucius Sergius Catilina, who was accused of conspiring against the Roman Republic. These speeches are considered some of Cicero's most famous and influential works, as they helped to expose and defeat the Catilinarian conspiracy. In addition to the speeches against Catiline, the book also includes Cicero's oration in defense of the Greek poet Archias, who was accused of not being a Roman citizen. The book also features Cicero's speeches in support of the Manilian Law, which granted Pompey the power to fight against the pirates in the Mediterranean, and in defense of Marcellus, a Roman politician who had been exiled. Overall, Cicero's Four Orations Against Catiline: Also The Oration For the Poet Archias, For The Manilian Law, And For Marcellus (1905) provides a fascinating insight into the political and social climate of ancient Rome, as well as the rhetorical skills of one of its most famous orators.With Explanatory Notes And A Vocabulary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
