Description: My analysis will focus on the choice of partners in dialogue. The figures chosen as partners in dialogue in Cicero’s Paradoxa are all closely related to Caesar; even Caesar himself makes an appearance. Cicero suggests through his philosophical analysis that men belonging to Caesar’s circle and Caesar himself live according to values that are the opposite of the Stoic ethical principles discussed. The aim is not to establish or even outline any definitive anti-Caesarian position taken by Cicero. Nonetheless, underpinning this study is the consideration that Cicero wavered in his view of and relationship to the figure of Caesar in the different phases of Caesar’s rise to power [Author]
