This anthology is designed to meet the needs of Latin students
today, acknowledging present constraints on their study-time. It
adopts the authors' approach of their "Ecce Romani" series. To
enable students to read Latin reasonably quickly, generous
assistance is given with vocabulary and explanatory notes placed
next to the Latin text. The meaning of difficult sentences and
phrases is usually explained by literal translation rather than
complex grammatical explanation, though reference is frequently
made to the authors' modern grammar book "The Latin Language." An
'overview' technique helps students unravel complex sentences.
Extracts are drawn from Cicero's speeches, letters and
philosophical writings, thus illustrating his mastery of styles.
They are also chosen to provide an interesting contemporary view of
a highly significant phase of Roman history, and linked by simple
historical background notes. 'Points for Discussion' highlight
stylistic features, showing how Cicero's thinking on moral and
social issues remains relevant to modern times.
