The Crisis of Catiline situates students in Rome in 63 BCE during a
time of urban and rural tumult, economic instability, sensational
trials, and electoral misconduct. Lucius Sergius Catilina (or
"Catiline"), a charismatic and scandal-plagued noble, has proposed
radical reforms that are favored by the urban and rural poor. But
he is despised and feared by the senatorial elites who have placed
their hopes in the hands of an immigrant to Rome, the brilliant
orator Marcus Tullius Cicero. Assuming the roles of Roman senators
who are either for, against, or undecided about Catiline's and
Cicero's viewpoints, students must confront the social and
political crises of the day by choosing the fates of Rome and its
historical characters. Can they lead Rome out of crisis? Or will
the political and economic climate lead to Rome's collapse?
