![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() on the other end of the Catullus’ Opinions On The Best Of All Orators is the venus throw by steven saylor, where the protag is working for the prosecution, and also (as always) Really Doesn’t Like Cicero, and so for once!!! we get a view of the pro caelio that isn’t just “oh marcus tullius you are so good at forensic oratory!!! characterisation of clodia who?” and also steven saylor’s clodia (and her relationship w clodius!) is extremely good. the key by benita kane jaro (again!) overlaps a lot w the door in the wall but pro caelio highlights are: caelius is so distracted by not noticing how in love he is with catullus that he’s like “oh yeah btw at this time i was being prosecuted for murdering an alexandrian ambassador :))) no big deal though!” and then as he sits through His Own Trial he fixates on catullus standing in the crowd with a ROCK that he is THIS close to throwing at cicero when he shittalks clodia. Good tier: good tier is characterised by Weird Takes On Catullus. ![]()
