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.
