Description: The aim of my paper is to analyse Cicero’s account by comparing it with two other accounts of the same event, that of Asconius and that of Metellus Scipio, in order to understand which facts were selected by each author, and whether, and to what extent, they distorted them to make their case. I hope that my analysis can contribute both to the reconstruction of the historical events and to a better appreciation of Cicero’s reworking of the facts.[Author]
