Quintus Tullius Cicero
Quintus Tullius Cicero (; ; 102 BC – 43 BC) was the younger brother of the celebrated orator, philosopher and statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero. He was born into a family of the equestrian order, as the son of a wealthy landowner in Arpinum, some 100 kilometres south-east of Rome.
== Biography ==
Cicero's well-to-do father arranged for him to be educated with his brother in Rome, Athens and probably Rhodes in 79-77 BC.〔Haskell: H.J.:"this was Cicero" (1964) p.83〕 He married about 70 BC Pomponia (sister of his brother's friend Atticus), a dominant woman of strong personality.〔Everitt, Anthony: Cicero, A Turbulent Life p.xv (2001)〕 He divorced her after a long disharmonious marriage with much bickering between the spouses in late 45 BC.〔Haskell,H.J.:"This was Cicero"(1964) p.83〕 His brother, Marcus, tried several times to reconcile the spouses, but to no avail.〔Marcus Tullius Cicero:"Samtliga brev"/Collected letters translated into Swedish by Gabriel Sjögren (1963)〕 The couple had a son born in 66 BC named Quintus Tullius Cicero after his father.
Quintus was Aedile in 66 BC, Praetor in 62 BC, and Propraetor of the Province of Asia for three years 61-59 BC.〔Rawson, E.: Cicero (1975) p.338〕 Under Caesar during the Gallic Wars, he was Legatus (accompanying Caesar on his second expedition to Britain in 54 BC and surviving a Nervian siege of his camp during Ambiorix's revolt), and under his brother in Cilicia in 51 BC. During the civil wars he supported the Pompeian faction, obtaining the pardon of Caesar later.
During the Second Triumvirate when the Roman Republic was again in civil war, Quintus, his son, and his famous brother, were all proscribed. He fled from Tusculum with his brother. Later Quintus went home to bring back money for travelling expenses. His son, Quintus minor, hid his father, and did not reveal the hiding place although he was tortured. When Quintus heard this, he gave himself up to try and save his son; however, both father and son, and his famous brother, were all killed in 43 BC, as proscribed persons.〔Rawson: "Cicero" (1975) p. 294〕〔Everitt, A.: "Cicero, a turbulent life"(2001) p. 306-307〕
