Anotace knihy

Excerpt from Pro Plancio On this occasion placed him at once amongst the best orators of the day. Ill-health obliged him to retire to Rhodes and Athens, where he continued his study Of rhetoric and philosophy for two years, returned to Rome in 77 b.c., and was elected quaestor for the year 75 b.c. He served this Office at Lilybaeum in Sicily, and acquired golden Opinions from the natives through his integrity, impartiality, and self denial. In 7 4 b.c. He returned to Rome and again devoted himself to his profession as an advocate. In 70 b.c. He undertook the impeachment of Verres, who was charged by the Sicilians with having been guilty of misgovernment, oppression, and extortion when Quaestor in Sicily 73-71 b.c. Hortensius, the consul-elect for the following year, was Verres' advocate, and on behalf of his client was anxious that the trial should be delayed until the next year, when the presiding Praetor would be more favourably disposed to the defendant. Cicero frustrated this attempt by getting his evidence ready in half the time allowed, and by opening his case very brieży and proceeding at once to the exami nation of his witnesses. The result of Cicero's onslaught was that Verres departed at once into exile without even attempting a defence.
