Alexander -- Early-career prosecutors : forensic activity and senatorial careers in the Late Republic / Catherine Steel A fundamental re-assessment of Cicero's place in Roman law. <p>This volume brings together an international team of scholars to debate Cicero's role in the narrative of Roman law in the late Republic – a role that has been minimised or overlooked in previous scholarship. This reflects current research that opens a larger and more complex debate about the nature of law and of the legal profession in the last century of the Roman Republic. </p>Contributors<p>Benedikt Forschner • Catherine Steel • Christine Lehne-Gstreinthaler • Jan Willem Tellegen • Jennifer Hilder • Jill Harries • Matthijs Wibier • Michael C.
