In 66 BCE, after decades of inconclusive struggle, the tribune Manilius proposed a bill that would give supreme command in the war against Mithridates to Pompey the Great, who had just swept the Mediterranean clean of another menace: the pirates. While powerful aristocrats objected to the proposal, which would endow Pompey with unprecedented powers, the bill proved hugely popular among the people, and one of the praetors, Marcus Tullius Cicero, also hastened to lend it his support. In his first ever political speech, variously entitled pro lege Manilia or de imperio Gnaei Pompei, Cicero argues that the war against Mithridates requires the appointment of a perfect general and that the only man to live up to such lofty standards is Pompey. In the section under consideration here, Cicero defines the most important hallmarks of the ideal military commander and tries to demonstrate that Pompey is his living embodiment. This course book offers a portion of the original Latin text, study aids with vocabulary, and a commentary. Designed to stretch and stimulate readers, the incisive commentary will be of particular interest to students of Latin at both AS and undergraduate level. It extends beyond detailed linguistic analysis and historical background to encourage critical engagement with Cicero's prose and discussion of the most recent scholarly thought."--Publisher's website. 410 0$aClassic Textbooks series,$x2054-2445$vvolume 4. 606 $aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Latin 610 $aRome 610 $awar 610 $aLatin text 615 0$aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Latin. 676 $a937.050924 700 $aLouise Hodgson$4auth$01356881 702 $aGildenhard$b Ingo 702 $aHodgson$b Louise 712 02$aOpen Book Publishers, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910132151503321 996 $aCicero, On Pompey's command (De imperio), 27-49$93361912 997 $aUNINA
