1550 RARE 1st ed of CICERO Works Philosophy ROME Terence Sententiae Insignoires
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero
Cicero was one of the most notable and prolific Roman figures of ancient Rome. His philosophical works and letters are considered the most reliable source of information for the period leading up to the fall of the Roman Republic. The works of Cicero have been published in numerous languages and formats from as early as the mid-15th-century; in fact, his work De Officiis was notable for being the third book ever printed. (Baldwin, 590).
This 1550 printing of the most significant and important ideas and philosophies. It contains parables, commentary on nature, and articles on ambition and morality, and much more. Published under the title Sententiae Insignoires by Pierre Lagnier, this rather rare and obscure book of the writings of Cicero contains numerous excerpts from the writings of Terence as well.
