Inhaltsangabe

Cicero, and others in the Roman Republic, were masters of both panegyric and invective, two hugely important genres in ancient oratory, which influenced the later theory and practice of rhetoric. Here distinguished international specialists address strategies of eulogy and vituperation within the Republic, and examine the mechanisms and effects of praise and blame.

The Rostra, overlooking the Forum in Rome, with the remains of the Temple of Saturn. On this site, orators such as Cicero addressed the people. And here the dead Cicero's head and hands were displayed by his killer Mark Antony - formerly the target of Cicero's criticism.
