Cicero: Pro Murena

by Cicero, C. Macdonald

Overview

The Roman statesman Lucius Licinius Murena led legions in the Mithridatic Wars and subsequently became administrator of Transalpine Gaul. On his election as consul in 62 BC he was accused of bribery and defended by (among others) Cicero, in this famous speech. Murena was acquitted, though the balance of opinion is that he was probably guilty. This school edition includes introduction, the Latin text, notes and vocabulary.
