1590 CICERO Orations Rome Political Philosophy Roman Speech RARE German Pigskin
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero
Cicero was one of the most important Ancient Roman philosophers, known for his orations and political views, many of which shaped the development of thought in the Western world. His writings and speeches have had a lasting influence that is far greater than nearly any other individual, most notably his orations.
Cicero gave these speeches with the intents of establishing his own political legacy, and historians argue that it is the single best documentation of events in ancient Rome. (Beard).
This 1590 edition of Cicero’s ‘Orations’ was published by Andrea Wechel in Frankfurt.
