Cicero's letters provide an unparalleled first-hand account of the last years of the Roman republic and its replacement by a tyranny, years dominated by the figures of Pompey, Caesar, Mark Antony, and Octavian.
Cicero's letters to family and friends shed light not only on day-to-day politics but also on the domestic life and character of their author, and life in Rome between 68 and 43 BCE.
This is the largest one-volume selection of Cicero's letters which are arranged in eight chronological sections in P. G. Walsh's attractive translation, charting his career through this turbulent period in Roman history.
Lively introduction sets out the historical context, and the nature of the letters and Cicero's correspondents. Full annotation identifies individuals and allusions.
Editorial material includes maps, a Note on Roman names, Glossary of Terms, and index.
