Book Description

Excerpt from M. Tulli Ciceronis Cato Maior De Senectute The Introduction has been made somewhat full in order to present, in convenient form, a sketch of Cicero's life, with a'brief account of what he has accomplished in literature, and more especially in philosophy. In the preparation of the sections which bear upon his standing as a philosopher and his relation to the leading schools, Mayor's admirable Sketch of Greek Philoso phy has been very helpful.
