Description: [Lévy, Carlos] [Abstract] This paper aims to shows how Cicero’s consideration of eloquence as imitation was a late decision in his life caused by the circumstances. The expression "Ciceronian challenge" refers here to the conversion from a rhetoric based in the concept to a rhetoric where the concept of imitation has gained greater importance. Although during the early years of his career as orator Cicero favored the representation of the spoken word as illocutionary and perlocutionary force as in Austin’s terms, towards the end of his life he took a more abstract position in which the concept of imitation finally prevailed as a key word in his rhetoric.
