Reading notes
- Ad Atticum 14.12 §1 but not through Fulvia
Fulvia, Antony's wife, was notorious for trafficking in political favours for cash; Cicero allows that King Deiotarus deserves his realm but objects to its being secured by bribing her.
- Second Philippic §112 that wife of yours
Fulvia, Antony's politically forceful wife (previously married to Clodius and to Curio); "her third instalment" darkly suggests Antony will be the third husband she buries, owed to the Roman people.
- Sixth Philippic §4 a most rapacious woman
Fulvia, wife of Mark Antony; Cicero repeatedly portrays her as a greedy power behind Antony, alleging he obeyed her sooner than the Senate.
