Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from M. T. Cicero´s Cato Major, or Discourse on Old Age: Addressed to Titus Pomponius Atticus The Translation of Cicero´s Tract De Senectute, was made several Years since, partly for the Translator´s own amusement, but principally for the Entertainment of a neighbor then in his grand Climacteric; and the Notes were added solely on the Gentleman´s Account, who was not well acquainted with the Roman History and Language. Copies in Ms. Having been obtained by many, their Recommendation and Approbation of it, induced the Original Publication; as they though it to be in itself at least equal to any Translation of the same Piece extant in the English Language, besides the Advantage it has received of so many Notes, which at the same to time clear up the Text, and are highly instructive and entertaining. In the Philadelphia Edition the Introduction to the Reader closes with, "I shall add to these few Lines my hearty Wish, that this first Translation of a Classic in this Western World, may be followed with many others, and be a happy Omen, that Philadelphia shall become the Seat of the American Muses.
