M. Porcius Cato (234-149 BC) was a legendary figure in ancient Rome, renowned for his unwavering opposition to Carthage and his commitment to Roman traditions. This collection brings together all the surviving testimonies and fragments about Cato's life and works.
It features his earliest historical work, Origines, which chronicles Rome from its founding to the onset of the first Punic War; as well as his orations, regarded as the beginning of Roman oratory, and other notable writings such as To His Son Marcus and Military Matters. This volume provides a unique insight into Cato's life and legacy.
