Cicero's Topica is one of the canonical texts on ancient rhetorical
theory. This is the first full-scale commentary on this work, and
the first critical edition that is informed by a full analysis of
its transmission. Cicero recommends an Aristotelian theory of
argumentation to an expert on Roman law. The introduction and the
commentary seek to elucidate the exact origins of the theory of
argument used by Cicero and explain how it works. Moreover, since
Cicero's suggestions for a reform of Roman civil law have parallels
in similar efforts within the legal profession, Tobias Reinhardt
considers how much common ground there is between Cicero and the
jurists.
