Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. "The Impeachment of Verres" is a foundational work of Roman legal and political oratory, documenting Marcus Tullius Cicero's relentless pursuit of justice against the corrupt governor of Sicily, Gaius Verres. In these speeches, Cicero exposes a web of extortion, art theft, and abuse of power that shocked the Roman Republic. This edition, prepared with notes and vocabulary by Alfred R. Wightman, serves as an essential resource for students and scholars of the Latin language and ancient history.The text provides a vivid window into the complexities of Roman provincial administration and the legal mechanisms of the time. Beyond its historical value, "The Impeachment of Verres" showcases Cicero's mastery of rhetoric and his ability to sway public opinion through meticulous evidence and compelling narrative. It remains a cornerstone of classical literature, illustrating the timeless struggle against political corruption. Readers will find Wightman's scholarly additions particularly helpful for navigating the nuances of the original Latin while gaining a deeper understanding of the socio-political climate of the late Republic.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
