Who was famous orator in Rome?

Your question is hard to answer because to judge an orator one would have to hear and see him and the Romans never made any DVDs of their speeches. The most famous one who comes to mind is Cicero, but in his own time he had big competition from Hortensius. Cato the Elder, Julius Caesar and Marc Antony could also be rated as great. An orator did not just stand up and deliver a speech. He had gestures and voice inflections---showmanship was part of the art of persuasion.


Where Augustus and Cicero enemies?

Cicero and Augustus were enemies. In fact, Cicero hated Augustus. In front of him, he complimented him restlessly. But, behind Augustus' back, Cicero made the most nasty comments about him. Later, after Augustus found out about it, he was in the 2nd Triumvirate. This means he had the power to proscribe and kill Cicero, which he did. According to history, Augustus hung Cicero's head on public display at a public ceremony, and Marc Antony's wife pulled out the tongue and kept pricking it with her hairpin. This story also has a moral. It is as following: Shut up and do your homework.


Why was Cicero considered to be the greatest Roman orator?

Cicero made strong speeches because he had to in order to win. In the ancient world the orator, weather he were speaking politically or in a civil case, came out verbally swinging. There were no holds barred as far as speeches were concerned. Today's political or courtroom speeches are tame and bland compared to the ancients' oratory. There were no libel laws in those days, so "anything goes" was the motto.

Why did Cicero hate Caesar?

Cicero earnestly believed in the ideal of the Roman Republic, one equally balanced by the consuls, the Senate, and the Triubunal of the Plebs (Plebians). Therefore, when Caesar defeated the consul Gnaeus Pompey, Cicero saw Caesar as a threat to his beloved Republic, as did many. And, although Caesar wasn't the monarchy-loving despot his enemies made him out to be, he was not above ignoring constitutional restrictions in order to do what he felt was best for the Roman people.The action that deeply embittered Caesar to Cicero occured in 45 BCE, when he was declared dictator perpetuo - dictator in perpetuity, or dictator for life. Cicero felt this only confirmed his suspicians that Caesar wished to usurp the Repulic of Rome and establish a monarchy. Cicero was never outspoken in his resentment of Caesar (may of his critics suffered somewhat grisly fates) but he was symathetic for plots to remove him from office. Despite this, he took no part in Cassius and Brutus' poorly composed plot to kill Caesar, and although he sympathesied with their aims, he felt the plot itself to be naive as to the aftermath of Caesar's death.
