Extractions: Cicero (c. 106-43 B.C.) Marcus Tullius Cicero was born on January 3, 106 BC and was murdered on December 7, 43 BC. His life coincided with the decline and fall of the Roman Republic, and he was an important actor in many of the significant political events of his time (and his writings are now a valuable source of information to us about those events). He was, among other things, an orator, lawyer, politician, and philosopher. Making sense of his writings and understanding his philosophy requires us to keep that in mind. He placed politics above philosophical study; the latter was valuable in its own right but was even more valuable as the means to more effective political action. The only periods of his life in which he wrote philosophical works were the times he was forcibly prevented from taking part in politics 1. Cicero's life During his term as consul (the highest Roman office) in 63 BC he was responsible for unraveling and exposing the conspiracy of Catiline, which aimed at taking over the Roman state by force, and five of the conspirators were put to death without trial on Cicero's orders. Cicero was proud of this too, claiming that he had singlehandedly saved the commonwealth; many of his contemporaries and many later commentators have suggested that he exaggerated the magnitude of his success. But there can be little doubt that Cicero enjoyed widespread popularity at this time - though his policy regarding the Catilinarian conspirators had also made him enemies, and the executions without trial gave them an opening.

Extractions: 106-43 BC "I know that your heart was always as heavy as mine. Not only did we foresee the destruction of one of the two armies and its leader, a vast disaster, but we realized that victory in civil war is the worst of all calamities. I dreaded the prospect, even if victory should fall to those we had joined...As for the present time, if our friends had gained the mastery, they would have used it very immoderately...We live, it may be said, in a state that has been turned upside down." Cicero, Letter to Varro (Rome, 46 BC). "This man's works, so many and so fine, will last for ever and there is no need to comment on his great abilities and capacity for hard work...However, it is a pity that he could not have been more temperate when things went well and stronger in adversity."

Extractions: Cicero's first major political office was the quaesstorship in 75 BC. Then he spent about five years promoting the interests of Pompey the Great in Roman courts. Next, he held the aediliship (69) and praetorship (66). On November 8, 63 BC, a famous Roman aristocrat, Catiline, was defeated by Cicero for the consulship, the highest office in the Roman republic. After his defeat, Catiline planned a seizure of power through a coup d'erat. Cicero demonstrated his forceful speaking by attacking Catiline in four famous speeches. When Catiline tried to respond to the verbal attacks, cries of "Traitor" drove Catiline out of the Senate. Cicero had crushed the Catiline Conspiracy. Ironically, days before Cicero became consul, conspirators with the intent of overthrowing the Roman government, attempted to assassinate Agustus of Cicero. These events marked the beginning of an unpredictable journey for the political career of Marcus Tullius Cicero. Then, by the Senatus consultum (extreme decree of the Senate) Cicero ordered Catiline and other conspirators to be killed. In 58 BC, the Senate felt Cicero had misused his power, and ordered him to leave Rome. Meanwhile, Pompey had become jealous of Cicero's power, and refused to prevent the exile. Catiline died during battle. More of Cicero es Head of Emperor Augustus

Extractions: Download this book THE letters of Cicero are of a very varied character. They range from the most informal communications with members of his family to serious and elaborate compositions which are practically treatises in epistolary form. A very large proportion of them were obviously written out of the mood of the moment, with no thought of the possibility of publication; and in these the style is comparatively relaxed and colloquial. Others, addressed to public characters, are practically of the same nature as his speeches, discussions of political questions intended to influence public opinion, and performing a function in the Roman life of the time closely analogous to that fulfilled at the present day by articles is the great reviews, or editorials in prominent journals.
