To meet the demand of his friends Brutus and Atticus, Cicero agrees to pursue, in transcribed dialogue in the Brutus , history of orators that had begun to Tusculum. Although Arpinate wishes to focus on the difficulty which there is to excel in public speaking, the history of eloquence leads him on the places other than that of rhetorical technique and of evolution of discourse practices. One of the originalities of Brutus seems to be the introduction, between the lines, of political reading of eloquence, which completes the theories of De oratore on functions of orator. We find very different political reflection elements in the Brutus : analysis of relationship of eloquence with the power and its place in the state, the conception of orator as a man appropriate to Govern, definition of eloquence as a pillar of republican system to be defended. The original text of the chapter is in French. Keywords: Brutus ; Cicero; discourse practices; eloquence; pillar of republican system; political reflection elements; rhetorical technique
