Descrizione: [Abstract]: Despite rumors that Mark Antony signaled a willingness to draw closer to Brutus and Cassius in the summer of 44 B.C. (Cicero, Att. 16, 7, 1 ; Phil. 1, 7-8 ; Plutarch, Cic. 43, 4), Antony made no tilt in the direction of friendly relations with his political enemies in the Senate. Though Cicero informs us that he began thinking of returning to Rome after he read a transcript of a « contio » by Antony, this speech was more than likely delivered in the context of the escalating struggle between Antony and Octavian to win the loyalty of Caesar's followers. The attested rumors of a possible improvement in relations between Antony and the « Liberators » in mid- to late July were inspired by popular demonstrations in favor of Brutus at his production of the « ludi Apollinares ».
