Of About 106 Speeches, Delivered Before The Roman People Or The Senate If They Were Political, Before Jurors If Judicial, Fiftyeight Survive (A Few Of Them Incompletely). In The Fourteenth Century Petrarch And Other Italian Humanists Discovered Manuscripts Containing More Than 900 Letters Of Which More Than 800 Were Written By Cicero And Nearly 100 By Others To Him. These Afford A Revelation Of The Man All The More Striking Because Most Were Not Written For Publication. Six Rhetorical Works Survive And Another In Fragments.

There Is Also Poetry, Some Original, Some As Translations From The Greek.The Loeb Classical Library Edition Of Cicero Is In Twentynine Volumes.
