Thanks for giving me an insight into what a master of words he was!

I will take this opportunity to remind people that 'Cicero' was Tullius' nickname, and it means 'chick pea'. He was a cute li'l chick pea! This is why stuffy Victorian men talking about Cicero called him 'Tullius' or 'Tully' for the longest time.
Cicero and John Adam’s are quite an interesting pair: both politicians who started out as lawyers, one who helped create a Republic, the other failed to preserve it.
As I read and enjoyed Robert Harris's trilogy about Cicero more videos would be great. The first novel pretty much begins with Cicero's prosecution of Gaius Verres.
The Grass Crown by Colleen McCullough is another great novelization of this era. It has a scene where Chrysogonus is satisfyingly thrown from the tarpian rock
This scene occurs in Fortune's Favorites, not Grass Crown -- but don't miss Grass Crown! These first three books are an education in history and historical fiction. What McCullough does with her characters and with history is astounding! She walks a tightrope of remaining true to the original sources while bringing in elements of modern scholarship and at one and the same time telling a fascinating story that rings true on a deep emotional level. Amazing!
Cicero’s life, and his noble accomplishments, still benefit all of us to this very day! What an amazing man. His efforts at saving the republic from tyranny in his latter years STILL bring tears to my eyes.
I thought I had seen every show or movie about Rome there was. But I have never seen nor even knew about Murder in Rome. The sets, wardrobes, and casting look fantastic. Definitely going to have to find it and check it out!
Chrysogonus is a Greek name, and since he was an ex-slave of Sula, probably he was indeed Greek - to be noted many Greek slaves were not really chattel slaves or something, they were more like secretaries and aids and consultants and often held considerable economic social and sometimes political power such as in the case of Chrysogonus. So much prestigious were Greeks that Roman families of lower aristocracy often would give Greek names to their non-Greek slaves to show off as-if these were Greeks (indeed, incredibly funny). On the other hand, that meant that a number of Latins grew to resent the Greeks, and one such was of course Cicero. I did not know the case of his father and his, but under that light now I understand why he despised the Greeks.
A ballsy thing to do to go after sulla's right hand man so brutally, but also very clever. If he has so little fear of the man's wrath that he will insult not only his character but everything about him then it's emboldens everyone in the jury to defy him too.
You have my praise and admiration, Cicero, and' Greece my pity and commiseration, since those arts and that eloquence, which are the only glories that remain to her, will now be transferred to Rome.
The adopted grandson of Scipio Africainus who conquered Macedonia was AEmilius Paulus, he then wore the following name : Lucius Cornelius Scipio Africanus AEmilius Paulus Macedonius ! His wife just called him Lulu.
Excellent video. I was disappointed with the portrayal of Cicero in the tv series Rome. Where I found he was portrayed as quite a scared man. Not by the actor, who did a fine job of playing the scripted role. But in the script itself. This case along with many documented accounts of Cicero, show a bravery that few would have allowed to overwhelm a genuine threat of consequences. The people of Rome themselves referred to Cicero as ‘The Father or The Republic’, and such people did not show such respect lightly. Also a quick reminder of the work of Cicero’s slave Tiro, a man who kept accounts of Cicero’s speeches and life. A man who could it could also be argued was a the ‘Father of Shorthand’. As trying to keep up with Cicero’s oratory with long hand writing, would have been almost impossible. Necessity is indeed, the mother of invention ☺️
Very true, he risked his life many times to stand up for his beliefs, to stay in rome when caesar marched in, try to steer augustus towards the republic, to call out mark antony for being a piece of shit and many more. He did everything he could to protect the roman republic, and even took his death because of it like a man. There's a reason he was so respected.
I was an avid reader of him before I got put on no fly list and that whole thing blew up and I went viral on the interwebs. I'm guessing the tsa agents would be like Cicero who ?
Why would it be " a more likely explanation that he just wanted to take a break and not feared Sulla's wrath?" He might have gambled on Sulla not going after him immediately due to how tyrannical it would make him look, but Sulla certainly wasn't someone you antagonized without consequences. His sudden desire to further his education in Greece at the time he grew famous seems very much like someone laying low for fear of reprisals.
Sure, it may be that. But Cicero does so much to absolve Sulla of any blame by association that I don't think it was his primary concern. Also, Sulla was becoming much less involved in day-to-day politics at the time.
@@RomabooRamblings Cicero did, but regardless even assuming Chrysogonus acted without Sulla's approval (a very big if because Sulla made a fortune on the proscriptions ), it is still Sulla's authority and poor judgement that enables his ex-slave Chrysogonus to commit this crime and thus he obviously shares blame in Roscius murder, it's also shows the corruption of Sulla's proscription system itself. Cicero knew his actions were a slight of the Roman dictator and he did so again in the citizenship case. He obviously calculated that Sulla wouldn't kill him, yet that ambitious Cicero after gaining all this prestige suddenly felt the need to go to Greece for a couple of years of education makes you wonder if he didn't get cold feet as Plutarch says.
Well he probably wanted there during the 2nd round of proscriptions... Considering he just implied here that sulla might be neglectful or decadent to the things around and it's enough to scare Cicero off.. The 2nd time he lovingly antagonizes Marc Antony, welp he dead
I hate how other languages decide to change somebody’s name to fit what they prefer 😤 .. somebody’s name is their name! Cicero is spoken Kickero! No exceptions
Personally, I'd rather call Titus Quinctius Flamininus!! His giving the Greeks their Freedom at the Isthmian Games of Corinth, and Nemean Festival of Argos are Pure Excellence!!!
Can we make an educated guess about the fates of those involved through their exclusion from the records? When and why would Romans stop mentioning people in their records/follow-ups? Upon a return to the status quo? Upon death? Upon banishment or self-imposed exile?
Honestly I think the Rome TV series did Cicero dirty. He came off as pathetic and weasley in the show but the guy was awesome IRL. Nothing but respect for my man trying to do anything he could to keep things together and avoid yet another horrific civil war/societal collapse.
Well Rome is set a lot later. Cicero didn’t do much during Caesar’s Civil War. First he was away in his province when it started and for longest time he thought Caesar and Pompeius would come to some agreement (those two probably did think it so as well but hardliners in Senate weren’t having a compromise) so Cicero wasn’t involved. He stayed around in Italia for a while after Caesar had arrived to Rome and Pompeians exited and had talks with Caesar, but decided to leave for the Pompeian camp. There he didn’t do much (he was not a military man or that against Caesar to push things) but was disturbed by some over confidence of the Senators. After he did hang out Greece in exile waiting Caesar to return from Egypt to pardon him. After he sat around lamenting in his letters the state of affairs but publicly just praying Caesar for his clemency. When Cicero actually did have a big influence was after Caesar was killed. I haven’t seen second season of Rome but this is where Cicero should be one of the main characters in the first half of the season. After Antonius’s consulship ended (he was Caesar’s co-consul and there was somewhat of a truce between Caesarians and the assassins the nine months Antonius’s consulship lasted) Cicero made extremely hostile speeches against Antonius in the Phillipis. Which is one reason why the war against Antonius happened. Cicero also legitimized Octavian as an important figure in politics since he wanted to use the armies loyal to Octavian against Antonius. Octavian inheriting Caesar’s name didn’t mean he had any legimate political power due to his age and lack of elected or appointed office. But it was Cicero who supported him for a strange consulship. And unfortunately for Cicero and Republic, Antonius and Octavian did eventually settle their differences (and their troops didn’t even want to fight each other). After that Cicero was proscribed and killed. So he didn’t manage accomplish anything after Caesar’s murder and made things worse. But maybe some things were inevitable, who knows. Rome show should have started with Marius and Sulla however. If that happened we would have seen more glory days of Cicero. Cicero was also over 60 by second season of Rome (although he doesn’t seem to look like it and Cato looks too old, he should be in his 40s). He was near retirement and not on top of his game.
Yes, more Cicero please. A very timely story that in a lot of ways reflects what is going now in the US is how Cicero tried to talk Caesar out of crossing the Rubicon and ending the republic. Both the US and Rome started as monarchies, had revolts and become republics. Rome turned back into a dictatorship and if the Supreme Court let's Trump act "above the law," we will turn back into an authoritarian dumpster fire. When I found out I might be related, I started my interest in history and politics. I share Cicero's birthday and also grew up with Asthma and my grandfather had a "chickpea" on the side of his nose also. Cicero dedicated himself to saving Rome and I have dedicated myself to saving humanity from nuclear annihilation, I work for Peace Action to eliminate nuclear weapons. ...Peace ! Joe Cicero
Americans are hardly taught Cicero and Jefferson, so not many understand the Republic. Thankfully, we aren’t taught military history either, so gangs and coups are fairly pathetic.

1958 if bing isworking right, though the process of colleges stopping latin requirements and class was more gradual in the early 1960's.
