"The eminent classicist Christian Habicht here reexamines the career, achievements, and failures of Cicero during Republican Rome's worst political crisis. In spite of the tremendous obstacles that stood in the way of the 'new men,' Cicero strove to be the leading statesman of his time. It was the superior political genius first of Caesar, then of Octavian, that prevented his success." - publisher.
