Description: Christoph Schwameis deals with the ancient scholia by Ps.Asconius as the most important source on the fictionality of Cicero’s Actio secunda in Verrem. Although most modern scholars working on the Verrines still quote Ps.Asconius when dealing with this subject, usually only those who query the fictionality of the actio secunda dig any deeper into these ancient scholia. This chapter does not intend to solve the riddle of the true nature of Cicero’s speeches, but rather to take a closer look at Ps.-Asconius’ comments themselves on this subject and on their scholarly reception. First, the chapter treats the other sources on the fictionality of Cicero’s speech and the ways modern research has assessed Ps.-Asconius. Next, it discusses the relevant text in a close reading, while embedding it in its context. Lastly, it outlines the ways in which Ps.Asconius’ observations on the fictionality of Cicero’s Verrines have influenced early modern commentaries. [Pieper & Pausch 2023, 19]
