Description
Cicero's Selected Works is a collection of his most influential writings, showcasing his mastery of eloquence and his strict sense of morality. Translated with an introduction by Michael Grant, this Penguin Classics edition brings together letters, speeches, and philosophical treatises that demonstrate the diversity of Cicero's writings.
Written during a time of great change and turmoil, Cicero's lucid ethical writings formed the foundation of the Western liberal tradition in political and moral thought. This selection includes some of his most famous works, such as On Duties and On Old Age, which celebrate his own declining years.
Published by Penguin, a leading publisher of classic literature, this edition is part of the Penguin Classics series, which represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
