Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cato Maior: A Dialogue on Old Age This was just the point in life at which according to Roman custom a man was called senex 5 but it was early enough in that period for Cicero to regard his age with complacency rather than repining. It was an age which freed a man from all necessity of performing public services without preventing his performing them if he had the power, will, and necessary credit. To Cicero three-score years had brought no diminution to his ardent feelings or his extraordinary intellectual activity. He must have been a man of excellent health, and possessed in a marvellous degree of that faculty, said to be so characteristic of an eminent living statesman, of extraordinary concentration combined with endless versatility. However eager he is in politics, however restless he is in his movements, his studies and his composition go on, and to each in turn he seems to devote his whole energy and vigour. So it came to pass that in this which was to be the last entire year of his life he nished, besides this dialogue, the dc Oiciis, the de Natura Deorum, the de Gloria, the Topica, and the de Amicitia.
