Description: In the first half of this essay, I will lay out Cicero’s background and the context of De Lege Agraria, which will foreground my examination of his first speech delivered before the Senate. In this speech, he satisfies both aspects of what I call his “appeal.” I will then spend the second half of this paper examining how these principles carry into his second speech before the crowd in the contio, reflecting on what his “appeal” could indicate and its value in ongoing conversations surrounding the political power of the populace in the late Republic.[Author]
