Mit den Philippischen Reden erreicht Cicero den abschlieĂenden Höhepunkt seiner rhetorischen Leistung und politischen TĂ€tigkeit. Diese vierzehn Reden sind ferner ein bedeutendes Zeugnis fĂŒr die krisenhafte Endphase der römischen Republik. Trotzdem sind sie in der wissenschaftlichen Bearbeitung lange vernachlĂ€ssigt worden. Die vorliegenden zwei BĂ€nde bieten nun einen umfassenden wissenschaftlichen Kommentar zu den Reden 3-9, sieben zentralen Reden des Corpus. Die detaillierte Kommentierung erschlieĂt die Reden unter sprachlich, literarisch und historisch relevanten Aspekten (Bd. 2). Als Grundlage dienen ein neu durchgesehener lateinischer Text, eine englische Ăbersetzung sowie eine ausfĂŒhrliche Einleitung zu Problemen des gesamten Corpus; eine Bibliographie und Indizes vervollstĂ€ndigen die Ausgabe (Bd. 1). Ăber die durchgehende Einzelkommentierung hinaus wird der Charakter der Reden als rhetorische Konstrukte in der historischen Auseinandersetzung deutlich gemacht, weswegen ein Schwerpunkt der Analyse auf dem Nachweis der Argumentationstechniken und politischen Strategien Ciceros liegt. Der Aufbau des Kommentars zielt auch drauf ab, wissenschaftliche Informationen fĂŒr Leser mit unterschiedlichen Interessen und Ausgangsvoraussetzungen bereitzustellen.
