Souvenirs of Cicero (eBook, ePUB)

Shaping Memory in the Epistulae ad Familiares

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Souvenirs of Cicero studies the narratives that the letter collections of Cicero unfold and looks closely at the ancient format of Epistulae ad Familiares, the collection that incorporates Cicero's widest cast of correspondents and has been most vulnerable to later editorial reorganization. It attends to this collection's status as an artefact of the Roman imperial period.
