"To teach correct Latin and to explain the poets" were the two standard duties of Roman teachers. Not only was a command of literary Latin a prerequisite for political and social advancement, but a sense of Latin's history and importance contributed to the Romans' understanding of their own cultural identity. Put plainly, philology-the study of language and texts-was important at Rome. Critics, Compilers, and Commentators is the first comprehensive introduction to the history, forms, and texts of Roman philology. James Zetzel traces the changing role and status of Latin as revealed in the ways it was explained and taught by the Romans themselves. In addition, he provides a descriptive bibliography of hundreds of scholarly texts from antiquity, listing editions, translations, and secondary literature. Recovering a neglected but crucial area of Roman intellectual life, this book will be an essential resource for students of Roman literature and intellectual history, medievalists, and historians of education and language science.

"This book is a literary and cultural interpretation of Cicero's two earliest dialogues, both modelled on Plato. It offers new readings of both De oratore and De re publica, including a reconstruction of the argument of the fragmentary De re publica. It explores Cicero's highly ambivalent attitude to Plato and to the development of technical rhetoric and philosophy in the Hellenistic period, and at the same time uses the historical settings of the dialogues to re-create the development of Roman attitudes towards Greek thought in the second century BCE. It also examines Cicero's views about the status and values of rhetorical education and of political experience and his deliberately ambiguous presentation of the settings and speakers of his own dialogues. One of Cicero's goals, as is also true of other contemporary writers such as Catullus and Lucretius, is to explore Rome's moral and cultural history in relationship to Greece and in relationship to Rome's own heritage. The Lost Republic treats Cicero's first dialogues as masterpieces of literary imagination that present a compelling vision of the intellectual, moral, and historical underpinnings of civil society"--
