As a genre uniquely dependent on an immediate interaction between author and audience, ancient oratory becomes performance art.Vasaly investigates the way Cicero represented the contemporary physical world-places, topography, and monuments, both those seen and those merely mentioned-to his listeners and demonstrates how he used these representations to persuade. Her exceptionally well-written study deftly recaptures the immediacy of Cicero's oratory and makes a trenchant contribution to an important new area of inquiry in Classical Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51943660912928,"sku":"NEW0520201787","price":33.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/representations-images-of-the-world-in-ciceronian-oratory-0520201787","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
