Descrizione: [Abstract] Cicero aimed in De optimo to sketch out a model of the truly eloquent speaker – in ‘Demosthenic’ forms – able to manage all the different types of style. Conscious of the canonicity that his speeches had achieved, he could not let stand the stigma conferred by his inability to deliver a good oration in hostile circumstances
