Thanks for directing me to this excellent review of an interesting book. How did I miss it? It was Xmas time. I should visit "figs in winter " more faithfully. You almost certainly know that Robert Harris has a novel on Cicero and Tiro. Thank you again for your hard work.

I'm also a huge fan of Robert Harris' trilogy! In particular, the parts about Cato made everything make sense.
Judy, you're most welcome! Yes, I really enjoyed the Cicero / Tiro trilogy by Harris!
Hard to believe the term “stand up”, in re a form of comedy, exited back ; in fact, I don’t.
The Latin is pretty unambiguous...
Very interesting. The shorthand would have been good to know!
Impressive that it was used for so long!
