👉 In the context of philosophy, "ciceronianists" refer to those who believe that Cicero was a true and genuine philosopher rather than an imitation or derivative of his works. They argue that Cicero's ideas are not only valid but also have a profound impact on the development of Western thought and culture. While some may view him as a false figure, others see him as a true and influential thinker who contributed significantly to the fields of philosophy, law, rhetoric, and politics.
