« About This Work | Plut. Ant. 1 | Plut. Ant. 2 | About This Work »

1Antony’s grandfather was the orator Antonius, who joined the party of Sulla and was put to death by Marius;[1] his father was Antonius surnamed Creticus, a man of no great repute in public life, nor illustrious, but kindly and honest, and particularly a liberal giver, as one may see from a single instance.
