Ciceron, Pour T. Annius Milon
by Ciceron and edited and translated by Andre Boulanger, introduction by Jean-Noel Robert
Veritable chef-d’oeuvre de l’art oratoire, ce plaidoyer fut ecrit par Ciceron pour la defense du senateur Milon, accuse du meurtre de Clodius, en janvier -52. Cette affaire criminelle revet autant un caractere prive que public: c’est l’histoire d’une haine personnelle qui reflete et illustre celle des mouvements politiques qui s’affrontent alors, les optimates et les populares, c’est aussi une illustration de la lutte acharnee qui oppose les grands chefs du moment, plus soucieux de leur gloire personnelle que de celle de Rome. Temoignage important sur une epoque troublee ou la Republique agonise, et sur une affaire eminemment politique, point d’orgue de l’anarchie qui regne alors a Rome avant que n’eclate la guerre fratricide entre Cesar et Pompee.
