'Kenty's thematic approach makes this book a welcome complement to scholarship that adopts a chronological approach to Cicero's writings.' J. Boersma, Choice

'Kenty's thematic approach makes this book a welcome complement to scholarship that adopts a chronological approach to Cicero's writings.' J. Boersma, Choice '… a well-informed and deeply researched study, but also a highly entertaining read for everyone'. Damian Pierzak, Institute of Literary Studies 'This is an important book for anyone interested in Cicero's speeches in the years after his return from exile, scholars and students alike. The author illuminates various aspects of Cicero's life and oratory, as well as some broader trends in Late Republican politics, and makes a significant contribution to our understanding of Cicero's rhetoric.' Fabio Avesani, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
