Brian Krostenko has recently published The Voices of the Consul: The Rhetorics of Cicero's de lege agraria I and II (Oxford, 2024). This is the first book-length study of the rhetoric of two understudied speeches of Cicero, which uses the techniques of discourse analysis to reveal how and why Cicero, at the beginning of his term as one of Rome's supreme executive officers, lays claim to contested political slogans and ideologies in the turbulent late Republic.
Krostenko is a professor of the culture and law of the Late Roman Republic, Cicero, Catullus, rhetoric, and Latin linguistics.
