Description

Cicero's Pro Cluentio: A Selection by Matthew Barr is an OCR-endorsed publication for Latin AS and A-Level students. This edition presents sections 1-7 and 10-11 of Cicero's famous speech, along with commentary and vocabulary, as well as a detailed introduction covering the prescribed poems to be read in English. The speech tells the story of Aulus Cluentius Habitus' trial for attempted murder, defended by Marcus Tullius Cicero. The selections in this edition demonstrate Cicero's use of character assassination in his speeches, first targeting Oppianicus the Elder and then his own mother, Sassia. Resources are available on the Companion Website to support students in their studies.
