Description: Although the dominant tradition on Brutus and Cassius in historical writing of the Late Republic through the 2nd cent A.D. is favorable, there are examples of a tradition opposing them. Survey of the tradition, culminating in Appian and Plutarch, with attention to Cicero's letters and contemporary documents. [APh]
