QUESTION 1 RHETORIC Read the passages below and answer the questions that follow. occurrebat ei mancam ac debilem praeturam futuram suam consule Milone: eum porro summo consensu populi Romani consulem fieri videbat. contulit se ad eius competitores, sed ita, totam ut petitionem ipse solus etiam invitis illis gubernaret, tota ut comitia suis, ut dictitabat, umeris sustineret. convocabat tribus, se interponebat, Collinam novam dilectu perditissimorum civium conscribebat. quanto ille plura miscebat, tanto hic 5 magis in dies convalescebat. ubi vidit homo ad omne facinus paratissimus fortissimum virum inimicissimum suum certissimum consulem idque intellexit non solum sermonibus, sed etiam suffragiis populi Romani saepe esse declaratum, palam agere coepit et aperte dicere occidendum Milonem. [Cicero, Pro Milone, XXV] 1.1 'occurebat … videbat ' (lines 1 – 2) 1.1.1 For which positions did Milo and Clodius respectively contend, as alluded to in these lines? (2) 1.1.2 How does Cicero, mainly through his use of contrasts and opposites, successfully contrast the weakness of Clodius with the popularity of Milo? You should quote at least two sets of words or phrases which are used in these lines. (4) 1.2 'contulit … sustineret ' (lines 2 – 4) 1.2.1 Describe the step taken by Clodius to control Milo's competitors as explained in these lines. (2) 1.2.2 Give one example of how Cicero draws attention to Clodius' manipulative behaviour through his choice and placement of words. (2) 1.3 Translate lines 4 to 9 printed in BOLD ('convocabat … Milonem'). (16) 1.4 'ubi vidit … Milonem ' (lines 6 – 9) Describe the contrasts Cicero draws between the influence and intentions of Milo and Clodius in these lines and explain how he draws attention to them. You should find at least two contrasts and, with reference to the Latin, explain how Cicero carefully places words to draw attention to the differences between the two men. (6) IEB Copyright © 2017

Clodi praeturam sine maximo rerum novarum metu proponeret? solutam autem fore videbatis, nisi esset is consul, qui eam auderet possetque constringere. eum 5 Milonem unum esse cum sentiret universus populus Romanus, quis dubitaret suffragio suo se metu, periculo rem publicam liberare? at nunc, Clodio remoto, usitatis iam rebus enitendum est Miloni, ut tueatur dignitatem suam; singularis illa et huic uni concessa gloria, quae cotidie augebatur frangendis furoribus Clodianis, iam Clodi morte cecidit. 10 [Cicero, Pro Milone, XXXIV] 1.5 'valebat … timor ' (lines 1 – 3) 1.5.1 In these lines, Cicero mentions three things which count in his client's favour with the jury. Summarise them in your own words. (3) 1.5.2 Suggest a reason why Cicero places them in this order. (1) 1.5.3 Apart from his use of this order, describe two other ways in which Cicero draws attention to the different strengths of his case through repetition of sounds and placement of words in these lines. (2) 1.6 Translate lines 3 to 10 printed in BOLD 'quis … cecidit ' (24) 1.7 Cicero's question in lines 3 – 4 is rhetorical. What is its effect (that is, what does it imply)? (2) 1.8 'solutam autem … suam ' (lines 4 – 8) 1.8.1 Pick out the words or phrases used by Cicero in these lines that convey his assumption that, before Clodius' death, Milo was popular and was guaranteed success. (2) 1.8.2 Give one example of how Cicero uses word order in these lines to amplify the contrast between Milo as Rome's saviour and Clodius as her nemesis. (2) 1.9 'singularis … cecidit ' (lines 8 – 10) Illustrate, with reference to the Latin, how Cicero uses alliteration, repetition and balance in these lines to contrast Milo's fortune before Clodius' death with his fortune now. You should pick out one example of each technique and explain its effect. (6) 1.10 'Cicero uses the "cui bono" argument (Milo stands to gain) to defend Milo only as another means of attacking Clodius' character.' Do you agree with this statement? Justify your answer with reference to these two passages and other parts of the Pro Milone you have read. (6) [80] IEB Copyright © 2017 PLEASE TURN OVER
