ISBN: 9781501349942 - selections from cicero pro milone: an edition for intermediate students (11 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Good. This is the first intermediate-student edition of a selection from Cicero's Pro Milone. Sections 24-32, 34-35, 43-52, 53-64 (to defendere) and 72-80 are included as Latin text with an accompanying commentary and vocabulary.

The published speech was regarded as a masterpiece of oratory in its own time, and is still held to be one of his finest compositions and a model for the presentation of such a defence.…
