Cicero

Broschiertes Buch

Selected Letters

Beschreibung

This selection of Cicero's letters not merely documents in detail Cicero's career but simultaneously provides a month-by-month record of the collapse of the republic and its replacement by a tyranny. It provides a vivid picture of daily life and politics in Rome, the assassination of Caesar, and Cicero's vain resistance to the rise of Mark Antony.

Autor

P. G. Walsh has translated six previous Latin editions for OWC: Apuleius, The Golden Ass, Petronius, Satyricon, Cicero, The Nature of the Gods and On Obligations, Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy, and Pliny, Complete Letters.
