“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”

― Marcus Tullius Cicero

 

A rare 16^th-century printing of the works of Cicero edited by Denis Lambin. Lambin was one of the greatest scholars of the 16^th-century and his editions of classical authors are still widely used and studied. His commentaries were considered especially important as he drew parallels and illustrations that were unexpected and detailed. His most important editions are that of Horace, Lucretius, Cicero, Demosthenes and Plautus.

 

This 16^th-century printing is Lambin’s edition and commentary of the works of Cicero. This volume, from the complete works published by Dupuys, contains some of Cicero’s most widely-known philosophical works including:

• Academica (on skepticism)
• De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum (a book on ethics)
• Tusculanae Disputationes
• De Natura Deorum (nature and behavior of the gods)
• De Divinatione (on divination)
• De Fato (on fate)
• De Legibus (on the laws)
