A literary criticism is presented of the Latin oratorical manuscript "In Verrem," or "Against Verres," by Marcus Tullius Cicero, in which the author suggests several textual emendations of the text that relates Gaius Verres' praetorship in Sicily. Topics include Cicero's claims about Verres' knowledge and use of Roman law, Verres' corrupt dealings while in Sicily, and legal matters regarding inheritance.
