This useful edition of Cicero's speech De imperio Cn. Pompe was first published in Macmillan's Modern School Classics series in 1966 and has been frequently reprinted. It contains a substantial introduction with sections on Cicero's and Pompey's lives, on Roman oratory, and on the historical and political background to the speech. The Latin text is followed by extensive notes on both language and context, and the edition is completed by maps and a vocabulary.

This impeccable edition still stands the test of time for students at
school and university who wish to approach Cicero's major speeches
against Mark Antony after the assassination of Julius Caesar.

concentrates on presenting plainly, yet fully, the evidence bearing on
problems of the historical background and features of Roman life and
institutions to which the text alludes. There is a clear introduction
which sets out the speeches' historical context and provides an analysis of their content.
