1 Classical Magnet School Advanced Latin Republic Ms. Goetz Cicero, Prō Archiā nārrātiō lines Nam ut prīmum ex puerīs excessit Archias atque ab eīs artibus quibus aetās puerīlis ad humanitātem īnfōrmārī solet, sē ad scrībendī studium cōntulit. Prīmum Antiochīae 45 - nam ibi nātus est locō nōbilī celebrī quondam urbe et cōpiōsā, atque ērudītissimīs hominibus līberālissimīsque studiīs adfluentī, celeriter antecellere omnibus ingenī glōriā coepit. Post in cēterīs Asiae partibus cunctāque Graeciā sic eius adventūs celebrābantur, ut fāmam ingenī exspectātiō 50 hominis, exspectātiōnem ipsius adventūs admirātiōque superāret. [5] Erat Italia tunc plēna Graecārum artium ac disciplīnārum, studiaque haec et in Latiō vehementius tum colēbantur quam nunc eīsdem in oppidīs, et hīc Rōmae 55 propter tranquillitātem reī pūblicae nōn neglegēbantur. Itaque hunc et Tarentīnī et Locrensēs et Regīnī et Neapolitānī cīvitāte cēterīsque praemiīs dōnārunt; et omnēs quī aliquid dē ingeniīs poterant iūdicāre, cognitiōne atque hospitiō dignum existimārunt. Hac tantā celebritāte 60 fāmae cum esset iam absentibus nōtus, Rōmam vēnit Mariō consule et Catulō. Nactus est prīmum cōnsulēs eōs quōrum alter rēs ad scrībendum maximās, alter cum rēs gestās tum etiam studium atque aurīs adhibēre posset. Statim Lucullī, cum praetextātus etiam tum Archias esset, 65 eum domum suam recēpērunt. Dedit etiam hoc nōn sōlum lūmen ingenī ac litterārum, vērum etiam natūrae atque virtūtis, ut domus, quae huius adūlescentiae prīma fāvit, eadem esset familiarissima senectūtī. Page 1
