How exactly did Cicero perform his speeches? This video uses guidelines on voice and gesture from rhetorical treatises to reconstruct Cicero's oratorical delivery in a theatrical workshop environment. Passages discussed and performed are drawn from Cicero's Pro Caelio, Pro Milone, Pro Ligario, Pro Archia, In Catilinam 2, and Philippic 6. Bring Cicero's speeches alive! Includes a booklet of the Latin text and translation of all passages.
