Description: This paper will look at Cicero’s efforts to reconcile first with his closest friend, Atticus, then with a man from his public life, Crassus, and finally with someone whom he ostensibly regarded as both a friend and an ally, Pompey. Its main aim is to identify and
analyse the main rhetorical strategies of reconciliation that Cicero opted to use in all three cases and thus to revaluate the kind of relationship that the orator developed with each man. [Author]
