Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Cicero, Vol. 1 of 2 I conscious of a certain audacity in thus attempting to give a further life of Cicero which I feel I may probably fail in justifying by any new information; and on this account the enterprise, though it has been long considered, has been postponed, so that it may be left for those who come after me to burn or publish as they may think proper - or should it appear during my life I may have become callous through age to criticism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Marcus Tullius Cicero, Vol. 1 of 2 My object has been to exhibit Cicero not only as an orator and a politician, but as he was in private life, surrounded by his family and fi'iends speaking and acting like other men in the ordinary affairs of home. And the more we accustom ourselves to re gard the ancients as persons of like passions as our selves, and familiarize ourselves with the idea of them as fathers, husbands, friends, and gentlemen, the better we shall understand them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Marcus Tullius Cicero, Vol. 2 of 2 The new year opened with no consuls. And this state of interregnum lasted for six months, during which a succession of officers was appointed, called interreges, who, according to a law or custom as old as the time of the monarchy, each held office for a period of five days, so that this year there were at least thirty-six interreges. They were chosen by the Senate out of their own body, and must by law be patricians, which explains the reason why the tribunes, who of course were always plebeians, were generally opposed to their creation. In the meantime, however, the city was in a state of turbulent confusion. All attempts to hold the comitia for the election of consuls failed. They were stopped by the usual device of "watching the sky," or interrupted by riots which broke up the meeting. At last one of the tribunes, Q. Pompeius Ruius, a grandson of Sylla, was thrown into prison by the Senate, which summoned courage to perform this one act of firmness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Marcus Tullius Cicero, Vol. 2 of 3 Both those speeches are still extant, and a pas sage 01 'two from each will illustrate the temper and disposition m which he returned. In speaking to the senate, after a particular recital of the ser vices of his friends, he adds: as I have a pleasure in enumerating these, so I willingly pass over in silence what others wickedly acted against me; it is not my present business to remember inju ries; which, if it were in my power to revenge, I should choose to forget; my life shall be ap plied to other puposes to repay the good of fices of those who have deserved it of me to hold fast the friendships which have been tr1ed as it were in the fire; to wage war with declared ene mies to pardon my timorous, nor yet expose my treacherous friends; and to balance the misery of exile by the dignity of my return. To the people he observes; that there were four sorts of enemies, who concurred to oppress him: the first, who, out of hatred to the republiek, were mortal enemies to him for having Saved it: the second, who, under a false pretence of friendship, infamously betrayed him: the third, who, through their inability to obtain what he had acquired, were envious of his dignity: the fourth, who though by office they ought to have been the guardians of the' republick, bartered away his safety, the peace of the city, and the dignity of the empire, which were committed to their trust.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Marcus Tullius Cicero The Life of Cicero, by Dr. Conyers Middleton, has long enjoyed an extensive and well-merited circulation. To the classical scholar, affording, as it does, a continued commentary upon the text, in the shape of copious notes, carefully transcribed from the works of the Orator, in addition to treating upon the minutest particulars of his history then known, and containing a mass of information derived from almost every available source with respect to the leading events of his time, it must always prove a valuable aid towards a thorough acquaintance with one of the most interesting periods. Other and no less obvious merits, notwithstanding the slight drawback presented in its decided and extravagant partiality, might easily be specified. With all its excellences, however, it is a work more suited, from its elaborate character, to the learned than either to the general reader, or to the student who may be desirous of making himself acquainted with the leading events in the Life of Cicero, without possessing leisure or curiosity sufficient to enter into the more extensive field of inquiry presented by the labours of Middleton.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Correspondence of M. Tullius Cicero, Vol. 1: Arranged According to Its Chronological Order; With a Revision of the Text, a Commentary, and Introductory Essays on the Life of Cicero, and the Style of His Letters In preparing the present edition I have gone carefully over the whole book, paying special attention to the kind and instructive remarks of the critics of the first edition. Several notes have been re-written, and most of my statements examined anew. In the work of examination and verification I have received much assistance from my friend Mr. Purser. Since the appearance of my first volume, the criticism of the Epp. ad Fam, has passed into quite a new phase. The admirable monograph of Thurot on the codex Turonensis has proved its independence of M; and the paper of Fr. Ruhl in the Rheinisches Museum has called attention to the value of the Harleian codices in the British Museum. These Harleian codices Mr. Purser has collated. I have introduced into the Adnotatio Critica of this volume a complete account of the tradition of H and T (which are described in Introd. iii. 1). It will be observed, however, that this volume contains very few of the letters ad Familiares. The succeeding volumes will present a full account of the readings of these important mss, which have not yet been used by any editors of the letters. The Introduction to vol. ii. will also, I trust, contain a full description of the Harleian codices. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He huddles over Cicero's greatest acts in a summary and negligent manner, yet dwells upon his dreams and his jests, which, for the greatest part, were probably spurious;xvi preface.
