Έπαινος (laudatio) και ψόγος (vituperatio) στον IV. και VI. Φιλιππικό του Κικέρωνα: ρητορική πρακτική και πολιτική στρατηγική

Greek

Praise (laudatio) and blame (vituperatio) in Cicero's fourth and sixth Philippics: rhetorical practice and political strategy

The present study focuses on praise and blame as structural elements of Cicero's fourth and sixth Philippics (43 BC), which belong to contio. We try to examine, based on rhetorical and stylistic analysis, the loci laudationis et vituperationis that the orator exploits from traditional practice and the way he manipulates them in each case, in combination with the political terms of the current vocabulary, so as to express his personal interpretation about the precedent senatorial decrees. In addition, we attempt to show that the aim Cicero pursues by these means, from ideological perspective, is associated with his main political strategy, i.e. to isolate Antonius as hostis publicus, in order to preserve Respublica and the libertas populi romani, after Iulius Caesar's assassination.
