There has been a great revival of interest in the writings of
Cicero, one of the most important Latin prose writers; his letters
have remained unaccountably neglected, save for basic textual and
explanatory work, and for detailed history. This study shows that
Cicero's letters should be regarded as artistic works, the artistry
no less real for being bound up with personal situations. With
close analyses, extensive use of contemporary literature, and a new
understanding of the role of rhythm in the letters, Prof Hutchinson
reveals the value of approaching the letters as writing. Such an
approach will be found of significance for history as well as
literature. All Latin in the text is translated. translated.
