A collection of contributions by prominent Ciceronian scholars on Cicero's forensic speeches as examples of advocacy designed to secure a verdict, setting the speeches in the context of the Roman court system and of ancient rhetoric, discussing the nature of advocacy ancient and modern, analysing Cicero's various techniques of persuasion, and examining a number of speeches in detail as case studies.
