editI understand the need to prevent this page from being a monolithic list of links, but I question if the introduction of the page should really be copied word-for-word from the Cicero page itself. My apologies if this is already being worked on, but seeing as how the text has been there for some time, but I felt it needed pointed out to someone more informed on the matter and the matter of Wikipedia style. --216.170.23.234 (talk) 03:08, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Reader’s Guide?
editFollowing on the preceding comment: it would be nice if the page had some reader's guide. I mean, which book is the most popular, most important, most accessible, or something of that sort. Ceplm (talk) 09:27, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
Academica
editWe have no article about Cicero's book Academica. I have created a draft article [[1]]. Improvements welcomed. Teishin (talk) 00:44, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
pro milone
editwhy is "pro milone" listed within "political speeches"? while it was supposed to be political in impact, it was primarily concerned with milonis acquittal, the original speech having been held in a court, albeit a special one, as cic. notes in the beginning. the edited speech might have been "published" for political reasons, but that is the case for other "legal" speeches as well. granted, cic. argues on behalf of the republic etc., but the overall intention is a speech of the defense. 2001:62A:4:41D:D0CC:4F34:9E9B:7D5C (talk) 15:10, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
