Changing Audiences, Changing Emotions? Cicero’s Philippics 3-4
Conference object (Published version)

Show full item recordAbstract
From the bulk of scholarship on Cicero his popular speeches
have gained less attention than other parts of the corpus. The two most
influential works on the subject are those written by Mack (1937) and
Thompson (1978), who have compared Cicero’s popular speeches with
speeches addressed to other audiences. The aim of this paper is to chalenge
the generally accepted view formulated by Mack (1937) that differences
between Cicero’s popular and senatorial speeches are based primarily
on the different social position and, consequently, educational level of
the audience. Furthermore, this paper argues against Mack’s view that
the tone of Cicero’s popular speeches is far more emotional than his
senatorial speeches, using Philippics 3 and 4 as an illustration.
