Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cicero's Books of Friendship, Old Age, and Scipio's Dream The Subject Matter of this Book - The three books of Cicero, which are here translated, are among the choicest remains of antiquity. Scipio' Dream, although not composed as a separate work, is complete in itself. It formed part of Cicero's treatise; On Me State (de Re Publica, Libri V I which was composed in 54. B.c. This work is founded on the Republic of Plato, which also contains a vision of life after death, but of a very different kind from Cicero's. The work disappeared a thousand years ago, all except the Dream, which was preserved by Macrobius; but in 1822 Cardinal Mai found the greater part of the first two books, which he published in the same year. The treatise Of: Old Age (cato M aior Jive De Seneetate), was written in b.c., and that 071 F riendmip (laeliw rive De Amieitz'a) soon after; both were addressed to the author's friend Atticus. Cicero was at this time living in retirement, and the years from to B.c. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cicero's Tusculan Disputations, Book First: The Dream Of Scipio, And Extracts From The Dialogues On Old Age And Friendship; With English Notes Together with the first book of the Tusculan Dispu tations, the editor has here presented the Somnium Scipi onis, and extracts from the dialogues De Senectnte and De Amicitia; thus combining all the passages in the works of Cicero in which the question of the Immortality of the Soul is discussed. Besides the intrinsic interest and value of these treatises as containing the maturest decisions of Old philosophy upon a question of universal and nearest concern, they are adorned with a grace of style and happiness Of illustration characteristic Of their author and worthy of their subject. None of the philo Sophical works of Cicero holds a higher rank than the Tusculan Disputations for beauty of language and eleva tion Of sentiment; in the Dream of Scipio the lively nar rative and poetic coloring enhance the admiration which the loftiness Of its views cannot fail to excite; and the dialogues on Old Age and Friendship have always been regarded as treasuries of thought and models of compo sition! With the exception Of the Somnium Scipionis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ... quintus mucius scaevola, Augur, was wont to tell, readily and pleasantly, many things of Caius Laelius, his father-in-law, and not to stick in all his kind of communication to call him Wise. But I was so put to Scaevola by my father, fvhenI came to man's estate, that as nigh as I well eould c#r might, I should never go from the old man's lleeve. And therefore I bare away many things fvisely reasoned, and many things briefly and handomely told, and sought by his wisdom to grow better earned. When he was dead I got me to Publius Scaevo! a, whom alone I dare boldly name the chiefest ff our city for wit and knowledge. But another time fve sh; 11 speak of him; now I return to Scaevola flugur. j As he often talked of sundry matters, so I fcmem ber, sitting at home in his half-round chair (as Sis mai mer was) when I and very few his familiars were Jresent, he fell into that talk which then was almost IpmmcJ n in many men's mouths. For you remember as I think, Atticus--and so much the rather because you haunted Sulpicius company very much--what a wonder of lamentation of men there was, when he being Tribune of the People, disagreed from Quintus Pompeius with a deadly feud, who then was consul; with whom very friendly and lovingly he had lived. 1 Therefore at that time Scaevola, when he fell into a rehearsal thereof, declared unto us the talk that Laelius had upon friendship with him and his other son-inlaw, Caius Fannius, the son of Marcus, shortly aftei Africanus' death; the sum of which disputation I bare away, and have set it forth in this book afer mj own fancy. For I have brought in, as it were themselves speaking, to the intent these words "qujOth I' and "quoth he" should not be too often rehearsed, And the rather I did it that the talk...
