Cicero's Orations
"Cicero's Orations" by Marcus Tullius Cicero is a collection of speeches delivered in 63 BC. These four powerful addresses expose a dangerous conspiracy to overthrow the Roman Republic. As consul, Cicero confronts the senator Catiline and his fellow plotters, revealing their plans before the Senate and the people. The speeches chronicle the discovery, investigation, and suppression of the uprising, culminating in a controversial debate over the conspirators' fate. Published around 60 BC, these orations shaped Cicero's legacy and became models of Roman rhetoric for centuries.
