The writings of Cicero contain hundreds of quotations of Latin poetry. This book examines his citations of Latin poets, such as Ennius, Pacuvius, Accius, and Lucilius, writing in diverse poetic genres and demonstrates the importance of poetry as an ethical, historical, and linguistic resource in the late Roman Republic.
