Parole chiave: Rhétorique - Retorica - Rhetorics, Sources - Fonti - Sources
Descrizione: This chapter focuses on the elder Cato and Gaius Gracchus, and surveys the reputation that these figures enjoyed with Cicero and other ancient commentators. This survey will also encompass a reflection on the limits inherent in approaches toward pre-Ciceronian textual remains built upon the Ciceronian method of conceiving oratory and our own cultural practices. By looking into how second-century BCE orators drew on the preexisting culture of the Italic carmen and the new tradition of poetry, this chapter expands on the question concerning the adoption of Greek rhetoric and briefly considers the place occupied by writing in second-century BCE Roman oratorical practices.
