1 For a full picture of the current scholarly attempts to contextualise Ennius' work in its immediate milieu, see the works mentioned on p. 6 n. 15, p. 7 n. 16 and p. 15 n. 34. To that, I would add E. Sciarrino, Cato the Censor and the Beginnings of Latin Prose: from Poetic Translation to Elite Transcription (2011) (especially the introduction and Chapter 3) and J. Fischer, The Annals of Quintus Ennius and the Italic Tradition (2014).

2 A focused attempt to explore how Cicero exploits and constructs the authority of Ennius and his poem by focusing on the verbs introducing the citations can be found in the MA thesis by D. Provis, The Authority of Ennius and the Annales in Cicero's Philosophical Works (2014).
