Description: The chapter examines the episode of the Cena Trimalchionis, in which the rich freedman, addressing the rhetor Agamemnon, asks him what the difference is between Ciceron and Publius and, without waiting for an answer, expresses his personal opinion ('ego alterum puto disertiorem fuisse, alterum honestiorem' Petr. 55.8). Distancing from the outdated cliché that depicts Trimalchio exclusively as a crude ignorant, the author investigates the reasons for the juxtaposition of Cicero and Publius. [PhR]
