	intro to Cicero's Catilinarians
		Catilina conceived the idea of offering himself as a candidate in opposition to these substitutes, but was not allowed to do so, since (as happened to many governors) he was facing a prosecution for illicit financial gains (extortion) in his province.
		However, Catilina was again defeated, and it was probably at this point that he abandoned constitutional methods and decided to achieve the headship of the state - and freedom from his debts - by conspiracy and revolutionary violence.
		Where Catilina fell short of them was probably not so much in the ethical qualities so vigorously found wanting by Cicero as in success and skill; the old idea of redistributing property, though by now a social revolutionary commonplace, was not the best way to win influential supporters.

	Life of Lucius Sergius Catilina
		Iam primum adulescens Catilina multa nefanda stupra fecerat, cum uirgine nobili, cum sacerdote Uestae, alia huiusce modi contra ius fasque.
		Catilina postquam fusas copias seque cum paucis relicuom uidet, memor generis atque pristinae suae dignitatis in confertissumos hostis incurrit ibique pugnans confoditur.
		Sed confecto proelio, tum uero cerneres, quanta audacia quantaque animi uis fuisset in exercitu Catilinae.

	Ciceronis. Oratio in Catilinam I
		Sergius Catilina, homo patricii generis, magna vi et animi et corporis, sed ingenio malo pravoque, praetorius, qui iam a.
		Neque enim is es, Catilina, ut te aut pudor umquam a turpitudine aut metus a periculo aut ratio a furore revocarit.
		Polliceor hoc vobis, patres conscripti, tantam in nobis consulibus fore diligentiam, tantam in vobis auctoritatem, tantam in equitibus Romanis virtutem, tantam in omnibus bonis consensionem, ut Catilinae profectione omnia patefacta, inlustrata, oppressa, vindicata esse videatis.

		After his praetorship Catilina had had Africa for his province, which he had oppressed so severely that while he was still there ambassadors were sent by the Africans to complain to the senate of his conduct, and many seriously unfavorable opinions were spoken against him in the senate.
		Catilina was acquitted, moreover, in such a way that Clodius became widely suspected of collusion, for the examination and rejection of jurors appeared to be done according to the wishes of the defense.
		Both Catilina and Antonius made insulting replies to this speech of Cicero and went on counter-attack using the only argument they had, that he was a new man. There are orations extant published in their names, not written by them themselves but by Cicero's enemies; it's probably best not to pay attention to them.

	Cicero : Catilina I (werkvertaling)
		Als ik eindelijk, Catilina, zal hebben bevolen jou te grijpen, (jou) te doden, zal ik moeten vrezen, denk ik, niet zozeer dat alle goede mensen (zeggen) dat dit door mij te laat (gedaan is), als wel dat ook maar iemand zegt dat het te wreed gedaan is.
		Maar het is niet te verdragen, dat ik helemaal in angst ben wegens jou alleen, dat bij het minste gerucht Catilina wordt gevreesd, dat er geen enkel complot tegen mij lijkt te kunnen worden gesmeed, dat niets te maken heeft met jouw misdaad.
		Als nu uit zo´n grote roversbende die ene schurk zal worden weggenomen, zullen wij misschien voor een korte tijd bevrijd lijken te zijn van zorg en angst, het gevaar echter zal achterblijven en zal ingesloten zijn (blijven) diep in de aderen en in de ingewanden van de republiek.

	Catilina's Riddle (Steven Saylor) - book review
		Catilina's Riddle is the third in a series of historical mystery novels featuring Gordianus the Finder.
		This time the background is the "conspiracy" of Catilina, and the mystery component is confined to a rather uninteresting subplot, with the confrontation between Cicero and Catilina taking most of the attention.
		The basic thesis of Catilina's Riddle is that Catalina has received a bad press from historians, who haven't been sceptical enough of the rather biased portrayals of Cicero and Sallust.

		Catilina is 28 years old, the guy could have been her age or prolly much older.

		In recalling a specific instance he said, "I said moreover in the senate that you had arranged for a massacre of the aristocratic part on AD V KAL Nov, I mean on that occasion when many of our leading men departed hurriedly from Rome, not so much to savethemselves as to defeat your plots.
		When Catilina tried to reply to Cicero's remarks, his words were drowned out by the shouts of "Traitor!" by the entire audience.

	Cicero's 1st Catilinarian
		Moreover, we have in our hands, Catilina, a decree of the Senate that is specifically aimed against yourself; and a formidable and stern decree it is.(4) From this body, then, the state has no lack of counsel and authority.
		So, then, Catilina, if you cannot die with a good grace, you ought at the very least to take yourself off with great alacrity to some other land, and having thus saved your life from a host of just and amply merited penalties, resign it to a future of exile and solitude.
		But since it is yourself who are concerned, Catilina, their absence of words means approval, their acquiescence amounts to a formal resolution, their silence is the equivalent of a mighty cry.

	LUCIUS SERGIUS CATILINA
		Lucius Sergius Catilina was a patrician member of a noble family which had not provided Rome with a consul for more than three hundred years and whose decayed fortunes he was determined to revive.
		Endowed with military talents of distinction, he was a member of the staff of the consul Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo in 89 B.C. at the siege of the rebel town of Asculum.
		His troops had held their ground almost to a man; even those who had been scattered were found with their wounds in front; not a single freeborn citizen was taken alive and Catiline himself was found far in advance of his men, still breathing and with all his old spirit still showing upon his face.

		While all the books deal with important political events in the last years of the decaying Old Republic, featuring all the well known and quite a few of the lesser players of the final Act of Res Publica Romana, the detective element of the books is very much in the foreground.
		Catilina emerges as a fascinating and tragic figure of great charisma, forced by the fates and his ambitions to play out the role history had set aside for him.
		Gordianus' character is also further developed from where he was left of in the prequels, facing some trials of his own during the course of the story.

		He redresses the balance by producing a Bellum Catilinae of which Cicero is not the inevitable and central figure.
		Catilina is linked to Sulla by various devices or assumptions.
		More than that, the author transfers to his picture of Catilina (it has been supposed) the image and features of Sulla already dominant in his mind.

	EXAMPLES OF ENKLISIS
		It is, of course, possible for a vocative phrase, since it can have considerable length itself, to act both enclitically (setting off a single word as emphatic) and closurally (completing the rhythmic unit).
		Here, Catilina follows the enclitic, te, and lends its support to the emphatic introductory term, ad mortem.
		Catilina marks iam as emphatic; it is the term that looks forward to the conclusion, erit: "If at this point..., then in the future...."

	Lowest of the Low
		Saylor’s Catilina’s Riddle, while posing a problem that Gordianus must solve to keep himself and his family safe, is more the story of Cicero and would-be ruler Catilina than it is a straight historical mystery.
		Catilina was defeated and killed at the battle of Pistoriae, where a young Julius Caesar led the forces.
		It is a complex, densely written tale, and Saylor explores the character of Catilina with relish.

		It has since come to be considered a milestone in the history of Italian design.
		Catilina has been revisited over the course of the years and is currently available in a number of versions, including a small version (for use with tables), a steel version (plays on reflected light) and a low version (virtually an armchair).

		However, the parts that dealt with the Cataline conspiracy were dull, dull, dull in comparison to the parts dealing with Gordianus, his family, and his neighbors.

		Se detectaron a tiempo las intenciones de Catilina y sus cómplices, pero por cosas de la Fortuna no se pudo prevenir el asesinato de Marco Livio Druso, o la muerte de tantos legionarios romanos para que el oro de Tolosa terminara en los bolsillos de Cepión, y los heredara Bruto.
		Catilina contaba con el apoyo de la facción popular desde el principio, incluidos César y Craso pero se sabe que se distanciaron de él a raiz de su idea de la abolición general de deudas, una maniobra demagógica para atraer votos.
		Otra prueba de que César no comulgaba con Catilina es Salustio, amigo y partidario de César, no se cortó un pelo a la hora de describir a Catilina y sus andanzas, al que parece que no tenía demasiado aprecio.

		At Cicero's instigation, Catilina was easily crushed by a loyal army and the leading conspirators executed without trial.
		He spurned the revolutionary antics of Catilina and Clodius, but clove to their underlying sympathies.

		The senate was charged with extreme sentiments this afternoon as consul Marcus Tullius Cicero utterly battered the public face of Lucius Sergius Catilina, consulship rival and purported conspirator to murder members of the Roman government.
		"Yes, we have a formal resolution of the senate to this effect; by it remains an unpublished document, a sword still in the sheath, though it is a resolution, Catilina, which rightly understood required your immediate execution." Cicero's eyes blazed with latent wrath and irony at the twenty day immediate execution order.
		He urged, in what he thought was a hopeless plea to the incorrigible Catiline, that the criminal leave Rome, and deliver the Roman political environ from what he called a "disease, which has seized the state," for which Catiline's departure, arrest, or execution is the only cure.
