Another of Cicero's works, his history of Latin oratory known as the "Brutus", is dedicated to the memory of Hortensius. Though he criticises him at various points, Cicero's respect for Hortensius is evident throughout, and he frequently mourns his rival's death: 'I grieved to have lost in him not, as some may have thought, a rival jealous of my forensic reputation, but rather a friend, and a fellow worker in the same field of glorious endeavour ... each of us was helped by the other with exchange of suggestions, admonitions, and friendly offices'.
