	Terentia Varrones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Terentia Varrones (lived 1st century BC) was the wife of the renowned orator Marcus Tullius Cicero.
		Terentia was renowned in Rome for her quick temper and sharp tongue.
		Although Cicero was a New Man (in Rome this was someone in social and political circles without noble ancestry), Terentia overlooked her husbands' modest background as she believed in Cicero's potential, and she proved to be a tower of strength to her husband.

	Terentia Varrones - Wikipedia
		Terentia Varrones was de echtgenote van de Romeinse staatsman en schrijver Marcus Tullius Cicero, met wie zij rond 80 v.
		Terentia’s zuster Fabia, een Vestaalse Maagd, was in opspraak gebracht door Lucius Sergius Catilina, en hiervoor gestraft wegens overtreding van de religieuze voorschriften betreffende de zuiverheid.

		Terentia was a woman of sound sense and great resolution ; and her firmness of character was,of no small service to her weak and vacillating husband in some important periods of his life.
		Terentia could not have been less than 50 at the time of her divorce, and therefore it is not probable that she married again.
		The intrigue between Augustus and Terentia is said by Dion Cassius to have disturbed the good understanding which subsisted between the emperor and his minister, and finally to have occasioned the disgrace of the latter.

		She was called Terentia, if, as is likely, the name which the German visitor garbled in the fourth line is that of Decimus Terentius Gentianus, consul suffectus under the Emperor Trajan in 116.
		Terentia was not the only woman from Rome to inscribe occasional verse on ancient Egyptian monuments.
		Here I will only add that Terentia piquantly had the poem commemorating her "small gift" inscribed on the Great Pyramid - one way of associating the poem, and the brother it celebrates, with Horace's own poetic monument, "higher than the royal placement of the pyramids" (Odes 3.30.2).

		He adds, “Terentia, who generally was not a woman of a mild temper nor naturally without courage, but an ambitious woman and, as Cicero himself says, more ready to share in his political perplexities than to communicate to him her domestic matters,” reported this to her husband and stimulated him against the conspirators.
		Terentia had a will of her own, which may have caused her to resent having to be second, even to her own child.
		It is said that at one time Terentia retained L 480 of her daughter’s dowry, and there is a reference to Cicero’s failure to receive the rents from his lands.

		Terentia tiptoed along the hall, resting all her weight on the balls of feet, subconsciously making herself as quiet as possible.
		Terentia stopped as an unexplainable chill crawled up her back and turned her head to look in the direction she had come from, she had to admit, there was something a little creepy about seeing a corridor this long- without any doors.
		Terentia jerked backwards and bolted, the door slamming shut loudly, echoing through the silence she hadn’t even realised was so complete here.

		The rest of the women were frightened, but the Vestals told Cicero's wife Terentia to go to her husband as quickly as possible and tell him to do what he had decided to do on behalf of his country, because the goddess had sent a light to him to lead him to salvation and glory.
		Terentia - who was not meek or fearful by nature, but a particularly ambitious woman, as Cicero himself says, who was inclined to take a share in his political concerns rather than involve him in household affairs[1] - gave him the message and strengthened his determination against the conspirators.
		Clodius was acquitted because most of the jurors handed in their opinions in illegible writing, so that they would not endanger themselves with the common people by voting against him, or disgrace themselves with the nobility by letting him off.

		Her hair was golden hair in fact, not merely in name; her eyes were an intense, bright blue; her complexion was exquisite, the delicate texture and perfect whiteness of her skin emphasized by the healthful coloring which came and went on her cheeks.
		Besides her good looks Terentia had a charming disposition, a pretty unconsciousness of herself and a winning deferentialness towards her elders.
		Also she was an interesting child, being amazingly precocious, not as Brinnaria had been, in growth and behavior, for she was a complete child in all respects, but in being what moderns call an infant prodigy.

		While Cicero was spending the evening at a friend's house contemplating the best way to save the Republic from the many dangers that beset it, the Good Goddess gave a sign to Terentia (a flame appeared in the ashes of a fire that had been extinguished).

		First of all, they demonstrate a private relationship but are intended (perhaps) to be read by a larger audience (here compare the hints in Cicero's letters to Terentia that she may possibly share his news and greetings with her family, especially the ones which are written to Terentia and Tullia).
		Letters between people who are not spouses may be worth using as comparanda as well in order to define what is unique to the husband-wife relationship by attempting to eliminate either what is characteristic to all the letters of a specific author or what may be typical of all letters in general.
		Cicero's letters to his first wife Terentia are often used as evidence of relations between a husband and wife.

		For the young woman was very rich, and Cicero had the custody of her estate, being left guardian in trust; and being indebted many myriads of money, he was persuaded by friends and relations to marry her, notwithstanding his disparity of age, and to use her money to satisfy his creditors.
