Hardcover. We know more of Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 43 BCE), lawyer, orator, politician and philosopher, than of any other Roman.

Series: Loeb Classical Library. Num Pages: 699 pages. BIC Classification: DNF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate.

Paperback. Cicero's philosophical works are now exciting renewed interest, in part because he provides vital evidence of the views of the (largely lost) Greek philosophers of the Hellenistic age, and partly because of the light he casts on the intellectual life of first century Rome. This edition uses the 1997 Clarendon text by the acclaimed translator P.G. Walsh. Editor(s): Walsh, P. G. Series: Oxford World's Classics. Num Pages: 288 pages. BIC Classification: 1QDAR; DNF; HRKP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 195 x 129 x 41. Weight in Grams: 200.

Paperback. 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. Translator(s): Walsh, P. G.
