Description: Although sources assert that Caesar and Antony were estranged in 46-45 B.C., their quarrel is a fiction invented by Cicero, Phil. 2, 71-74. Plutarch, Ant. 10, 3 and Dio 45, 28, 2-3 drew on Cicero's account. The panic caused in Rome by Antony's arrival in March 45 (Cicero, Att. 12, 19, 2 ; Phil. 2, 77-78) suggests that contemporaries regarded him as someone whom Caesar might well call upon to initiate a bloody purge. Antony also canvassed voters for the consulship of 44 (Phil. 2, 76), an office he could hardly have hoped to win without Caesar's blessing. [Da APh]
