Reading notes
- Ad Atticum 14.17 §2 Lucius Caesar
L. Iulius Caesar, consul 64 BC and maternal uncle of Mark Antony; a moderate consular whose pessimism about Antony's intentions Cicero here cites with alarm as he found him gravely ill at Naples.
- Ad Familiares 9.14 §3 Lucius Caesar
L. Iulius Caesar, consul 64 BC, was the maternal uncle of Mark Antony ('my sister's son'); a senior republican-leaning consular, here ailing at Naples, he laments that he lacks the influence over his nephew Antony that Cicero has over Dolabella.
- Ad Familiares 10.28 §3 since he is Antony's uncle he does not deliver his most cutting opinions
L. Iulius Caesar (consul 64) was Mark Antony's maternal uncle; family loyalty tempered his senatorial votes against his nephew even as he sided broadly with the Republican cause.
- Ad Familiares 12.2 §3 L. Caesar
L. Iulius Caesar (cos. 64), an upright senator and (paradoxically) Antony's own uncle, kept from the Senate by ill health.
- Second Philippic §14 Lucius Caesar, your uncle
L. Iulius Caesar, consul 64 BC, was the brother of Antony's mother Iulia and so Antony's maternal uncle; in 63 he voted for the execution of his own brother-in-law, Antony's stepfather P. Lentulus Sura.
- Sixth Philippic §14 Lucius Caesar, that most illustrious man
L. Iulius Caesar, consul of 64 BC and Mark Antony's own maternal uncle, but a staunch loyalist; his motion in the Senate annulled the acts of Antony's land commission (the septemvirs).
- Eighth Philippic §1 Lucius Caesar
Lucius Julius Caesar, consul of 64 BC and maternal uncle of Mark Antony. He preferred to call the crisis at Mutina a "tumult" rather than a "war," excusing his leniency on grounds of kinship with Antony.
