Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Letters of Pliny the Consul, Vol. 1: With Occasional Remarks Pliny may be considered in these Letters as writing his own memoirs: every epistle is a kind of historical sketch, wherein we have a view of him in some striking attitude, either of active or contemplative life. And if That were his real design in their publication, he could not, it should seem, have taken a more agreeable, nor, perhaps, a more modest method of transmitting himself to posterity. To enter therefore into a detail concerning him, would be only anticipating the Author himself, and amusing the Reader with a copy, while the original stands before him.
