Riassunto Cicero was one of the most important political, intellectual, and literary figures of the late Roman Republic, rising to the consulship as a "new man" and leading a complex and contradictory life. After his murder in 43 BC, he was indeed remembered for his life and his works - but not for all of them. This book explores Cicero’s reception in the early Roman Empire, showing what was remembered and why. It argues that early imperial politics and Cicero’s schoolroom canonization had pervasive effects on his reception, with declamation and the schoolroom mediating and even creating his memory in subsequent generations--Quarta di copertina
