Print on Demand. This book goes into great detail in examining the manner in which locations and times were established in the correspondence sent and received by Cicero. These times and locations play a critical role in examining and possibly reordering the sequence of the letters sent during this chaotic and frequently dangerous period. The author examines these variables with great precision, especially the letters sent during the year 46 BCE, and demonstrates a level of attention to detail only possible by a seasoned and dedicated researcher. This book will be of great interest to those interested in Roman history, especially those with a focus on correspondence and the roles played by the key figures in this period. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Dafe für die Erklärung von Ciceros Briefen an Atticus die möglichst genaue Datierung derselben von Wichtigkeit ist, und dafs sich aus einer sorgfältigen Beachtung von Ort und Zeit der Abfassung auch für die Kritik der Briefe mancherlei ergiebt, habe ich an einigen Briefen des XV. Buches darzulegen versucht in meinem Beitrag zur „festschrift des friedrichs-werderschen Gymnasiums, Berlin 1881 (zu Ciceros Briefen an Atticus, S. 225 Im folgenden sollen in ähnlicher Weise für eine gröfsere Anzahl von Briefen des XII. Buches Ort, Zeit und Reihenfolge der Abfassung genauer als es bisher geschehen ist, festgestellt und einige andere hiermit zu sammenhängende Fragen zur Erklärung und Kritik dieser Briefe erörtert werden.
XII 1 enthält in den ersten Worten Festsetzungen über die Rückkehr von einer Reise. Cicero schreibt am frühen Morgen beim Aufbruch von einer Villa, die nur die arpinatische sein kann, da der Weg von Tusculum über Anagnis, auf dem Cicero hier zurückkehrt, unter den Villen Ciceros nur zu der bei Arpinum gelegenen führt. Er will an diesem Tage noch in dem Landhaus zu Anagnis, am nächsten auf dem Tusculanum eintrefl'en, den dritten Tag auf dem letzteren zubringen und am vierten Tage in Rom sein. Da er diesen letzten Tag mit V. Kalend. Bezeichnet, so ist der Brief VIII. Kal. Geschrieben, Doch welche Kalenden sind gemeint? Zunächst ist das Jahr, in welchem sie zu suchen sind, festzustellen. Da in dem Briefe des Atticus Tochter Attica mehrfach erwähnt wird, Cicero aber diese noch nicht kannte, als er im Jahre 51 nach Cilicien ging (ad Att. V 19, 2; VI 1, so gehört der Brief in die Zeit nach seiner Rückkehr aus Brundisium, die Anfang Oktober 47 erfolgte (ad fam. XIV Ciceros Tochter Tullia aber, die zur Zeit der Abfassung unseres Briefes noch lebt starb im Februar 45 (s. Drumann Geschichte Roms VI 704 Und da man aus 5 2 trotz der fehlerhaften Überlieferung erkennt, dafs Atticus in dem Briefe, auf welchen Cicero in XII 1 noch antwortet, für die Zeit, in der er seinen Brief schrieb, es als für einen Greis geziemend hingestellt hatte, der Kälte des Morgens durch Feuerung zu begegnen, so fand dieser Briefwechsel weder mitten im Winter statt, weil in dieser Zeit das Morgenfeuer auch in Italien nicht blos für Greise Bedürfnis ist, noch auch mitten im Sommer, weil dann doch wohl selbst Greise es entbehren können. Zu diesen Voraussetzungen stimmt es, wenn Baiter (in seiner kleineren mit Kayser veranstalteten Ausgabe) XII 1 ansetzt auf VIII. Kal. Innias des Jahres 46. Denn in diesem Jahre entspricht VIII. Kal. Inn. Dem 26. März der berichtigten Jahrform. Trotzdem ist Baiters Ansetzung nicht richtig. Denn es läfst sich beweisen, dafs Cicero im Mai 46 die Reise, die er zu Anfang von XII 1 erwähnt, nicht machte. Hierzu ist nötig, die Briefe an Varro und Paetus im IX. Buch der Briefe ad fam. Zur Vergleichung heranzuziehen.
