The Life of Cicero is a biographical work written by the renowned English novelist, Anthony Trollope. The book chronicles the life and times of Marcus Tullius Cicero, a Roman statesman, orator, and philosopher who lived during the late Roman Republic era. Trollope's book provides a detailed account of Cicero's early life, his rise to political power, and his eventual downfall. The author explores Cicero's political career, including his role in the Catilinarian Conspiracy and his opposition to Julius Caesar. Throughout the book, Trollope also delves into Cicero's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and lovers. The author provides insight into Cicero's character, highlighting his strengths and weaknesses, as well as his struggles with self-doubt and insecurity.The Life of Cicero is a well-researched and engaging biography that offers readers a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of ancient Rome's most influential figures. Trollope's writing style is both informative and entertaining, making the book accessible to both scholars and general readers alike.Cicero was the bugbear to them all. That he might have been one of them, if ready to share the plunder and the power, no reader of the history of the time can doubt. Had he so chosen he might again have been a real power in the State; but to become so in the way proposed to him it was necessary that he should join others in a conspiracy against the Republic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
