Professor Shackleton Bailey is renowned for his major scholarly
editions of Cicero's letters already published by Cambridge
University Press. This selection from the complete correspondence
is designed specifically for students at universities and in the
upper forms at schools, and offers them a representative
introduction to one of the most varied and most important literary
correspondences in any language. In choosing letters for inclusion
the editor concentrates on Cicero as a man and writer and on his
relationship with his contemporaries, but he has also included
letters which deal with people and events of special significance
in the turbulent political history of the period. The edition
includes an introduction, the text of the letters with critical
notes, and a commentary which gives help with linguistic problems
as well as elucidating the historical and social background.
