Marcus Tullius Cicero was a Roman statesman, lawyer, scholar, philosopher, writer and Academic skeptic, who tried to uphold optimate principles during the political crises that led to the establishment of the Roman Empire. His extensive writings include treatises on rhetoric, philosophy and politics. He is considered one of Rome's greatest orators and prose stylists and the innovator of what became known as "Ciceronian rhetoric." Cicero was educated in Rome and in Greece. He came from a wealthy municipal family of the Roman equestrian order, and served as consul in 63 BC.
Marcus Tullius Cicero oli roomalainen poliitikko, puhuja, filosofi, lakimies ja kirjailija. Häntä pidetään yleisesti latinankielisen proosan mestarina, ja klassinen latina määritellään yleensä Julius Caesarin ja Ciceron teosten pohjalta. Ciceron teoksia on säilynyt poikkeuksellisen paljon. Hänen vaikutuksensa myöhempään kirjallisuuteen ja kielenkäyttöön on ollut merkittävää. Häntä pidetään myös eräänä eurooppalaisen humanismin perustajahahmoista.
