Craig 2002, 530 : "S. Cerutti’s book-length examination of the exordia of Pro Quinctio, Pro Roscio Amerino, Pro Murena, Pro Milone, Pro Rege Deiotaro and the Second Philippic claims to identify an ?accretive style’ mandated by the rhetorical expectations for the exordium, and consisting in the establishmen of fundamental oppositions attached to certain ?concept words’ which, through their repetition, allow the bundling of global judgments about good and bad character to be attached to the stances of the opposing sides".
