# Ready to join the game?

Politics in Ancient Rome was a chess game – and Cicero played with remarkable foresight. His letters and speeches reveal the perceptive mind of a man navigating a republic in chaos – balancing principle with survival. Chosen for Folio by Oxford classicist Andrew Sillett, this collection sets the stage with expert introductions, making Cicero’s world as vivid as ever. With bold two-colour printing and striking illustrations by Neil Bousfield, every detail amplifies Cicero’s words, ensuring his sharp wit and political manoeuvres resonate as powerfully today as they did in Ancient Rome. Cicero makes his move – how will you read yours?
