A pragmatist at heart, Cicero's philosophies were frequently personal and ethical, drawn not from abstract reasoning but through careful observation of the world. The resulting works remind us of the importance of social ties, the questions of free will, and the justification of any creative endeavour.This lively, lucid new translation from Thomas Habinek, editor of Classical Antiquity and the Classics and Contemporary Thought book series, makes Cicero's influential ideas accessible to every reader. This edition also includes additional materials by Siobhán McElduff.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBTranslator: Thomas HabinekContributor: Thomas Habinek (Translated by), Thomas Habinek (Introduction by), Thomas Habinek (Notes by)Genre: Language & ReferenceAuthor: CiceroTopic: Philosophy & SpiritualityRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
