Description
Cicero's Pro Caelio: A Selection by Georgina Longley is an OCR-endorsed edition covering the Latin AS and A-Level prescriptions. This collection includes full Latin text, commentary, and vocabulary, along with a detailed introduction that covers the prescribed material to be read in English for A Level. Pro Caelio is one of Cicero's finest and funniest speeches, defending Marcus Caelius Rufus against charges of violence. The speech showcases Cicero's primary tactic of blackening the character of Clodia, who was accused of attempting to poison a Roman noblewoman. By casting Cladius as the victim of an aggressive courtesan, Cicero aims to shame Clodia and gloss over the more serious allegations. This edition provides supporting resources on the Companion Website for further study.
