Politics in Ancient Rome was a chess game – and Cicero played with remarkable foresight. His letters and speeches reveal the perceptive mind of a man navigating a republic in chaos – balancing principle with survival. Chosen for Folio by Oxford classicist Andrew Sillett, this collection sets the stage with expert introductions, making Cicero’s world as vivid as ever.
With bold two-colour printing and striking illustrations by Neil Bousfield, every detail amplifies Cicero’s words, ensuring his sharp wit and political manoeuvres resonate as powerfully today as they did in Ancient Rome.
