Cicero: De re publica

Gesine Manuwald is Professor of Latin, University College London. Her many books include Cicero (Understanding Classics, Bloomsbury 2015), Cicero, Agrarian Speeches.

‘Gesine Manuwald’s Cicero: De re publica is a valuable resource for anyone interested in this text. By featuring the text, a new translation, commentary and an extensive bibliography on scholarship to-date in a single volume, the book presents a useful companion to Powell’s OCT edition of the text and fulfils its goal of appealing to a broad audience: experts can benefit from the volume’s extensive bibliography, non-experts from the explanatory commentary elucidating Cicero’s arguments.’ Ana Kotarcic, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
