The Clavis Ciceroniana, authored by the prominent German philologist Johann August Ernesti, is an essential nineteenth-century reference work that functions as a comprehensive lexicon and index for the complete works of the Roman orator Marcus Tullius Cicero. This specific fifth edition from 1818, printed in Halle and Berlin by the Orphanage Bookstore, offers a detailed philological-critical analysis of Cicero’s terminology and concepts, including an overview of the Greek terms he utilized accompanied by scholarly annotations. For a long period, the book served as the gold standard for classical Ciceronian studies, enabling academics to locate and interpret specific passages, words, and thematic content within his extensive oeuvre with great precision.
