Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to draw attention to the fact that while the authorship of the much-quoted Commentariolum Petitionis (a late-Republican pamphlet on electioneering) is still debated by researchers, this brief work itself is regarded as a valuable and reliable historical source. No conclusive solution to the riddle of the authorship has been provided by recent stylometric studies.
