Throughout his political career he continued to appear as a mediative defender or an accuser in Roman courts of law. Antonius' modern reputation for eloquence derives from the authority of Cicero , since none of his speeches survive. He is one of the chief speakers in Cicero's ''De Oratore''. He had two sons, Marcus Antonius Creticus and Gaius Antonius Hybrida , who would not live up to his reputation of excellence. The former was the father of the famous general and triumvir, Mark Antony . REFERENCES
