Catilinarias (Discursos Contra Catilina)

Catilinarias (Discursos contra Catilina)

by Marcus Tullius Cicero

The Catilinarian Orations are a series of four speeches delivered by Marcus Tullius Cicero in 63 BC, during his consulship. The speeches were directed against Lucius Sergius Catilina, a Roman politician who was accused of plotting to overthrow the Republic. Cicero's speeches are considered masterpieces of Latin oratory and are still studied today for their eloquence and their insights into Roman politics.
