Description: The purpose of the dissertation is to study the orator's devices and techniques of adapting the same materials to two audiences which in aggregate differ greatly in social standing (and as a result in education and political privilege) and which thus may have quite different interests and aims in the political scene of the late Roman republic. The sets of speeches the author is concerned with are the following: De lege agraria 1 and 2, In Catilinam 1 and 2, Post reditum in senatu and ad Quirites, Philippics 3 and 4, 5 and 6.
