Die alten Römer waren zutiefst religiös und ihre Welt war voller Götter - von Jupiter, Minerva und Mars bis hin zu unzähligen lokalen Gottheiten, Hausgöttern und Ahnengeistern. Eine der einflussreichsten römischen Perspektiven auf die Religion kam von einem nicht-religiösen Glaubenssystem, dem Stoizismus. Wie dachten die Stoiker über Religion?In diesem Band stellt Philip Freeman Ciceros Vom Wesen der Götter und Der Traum des Scipio in einer völlig neuen Übersetzung vor - zwei Schriften, die in über 2000 Jahren nicht an Bedeutung verloren haben und von denen Persönlichkeiten wie Thomas von Aquin, Dante oder ThomasJefferson beeinflusst wurden. Zusammen mit einer informativen Einleitung gibt das Buch einen faszinierenden Einblick in die stoischen Konzepte des Göttlichen.Inklusive des lateinischen Originaltextes in einer zweisprachigen Ausgabe

Bedeutet Altern wirklich den Verlust körperlicher und geistiger Beweglichkeit? Der große Redner und Politiker Cicero sagt: Nein und führt aus, wie im Gegenteil die zweite Lebenshälfte zur besten Zeit überhaupt werden kann, und welche Vorteile alte gegenüber jungen Menschen haben.Voller zeitloser Weisheit und praktischer Ratschläge, hat seine Schrift (entstanden 44 v.Chr.) die Leser seit mehr als zweitausend Jahren inspiriert. Hier liegt sie nun im Original und mit einer neuen Übersetzung sowie einer informativen Einleitung vor.»Je mehr Menschen Cicero lesen, desto besser wird die Welt werden.«Anthony Corbeill, University of Kansas»Eine außergewöhnlich lebendige Übersetzung eines großartigen Werks.«Stephen Harrison, University of Oxford

Immer wieder gilt es beruflich und privat andere zu überzeugen. Da hilft es, die grundlegenden Techniken der Rede, die Rhetorik, zu beherrschen. Und was könnte da lehrreicher sein als die Werke des wohl größten Redners der Antike, Cicero?In diesem Band sind die besten Beispiele seiner Redekunst zusammengetragen. Neben der Übersetzung der lateinischen Originaltexte enthält das Buch informative Einführungen, eine Kurzbiografie Ciceros, ein Glossar sowie im Anhang die lateinischen Originaltexte.»Über die Kunst der überzeugenden Argumentation bietet einen sehr guten, praktischen Überblick über die antike Rhetorik - klar und gut durchdacht strukturiert, gut übersetzt, mit hervorragenden kurzen Einführungen. Zudem verbindet es auf wunderbare Weise alte und moderne Praxis. James May's breites Wissen zum Thema ist durchweg spürbar.«Ann Vasaly, Boston University»Dieses Buch bringt in meisterhafter Weise die Grundprinzipien der Rhetorik auf den Punkt. James May's Schreibstil ist gut verständlich und charmant, ansprechend für ein großes Publikum wie Studenten, Lehrer und allgemein interessierte Leser."«Robert N. Gaines, The University of Alabama

Cicero vermittelt in seiner kritischen Darstellung der griechischen Lehrmeinungen (Epikureer, Stoiker) unschätzbare Kenntnisse der antiken Theologie. Gibt es überhaupt Götter? Wenn ja, welchen Einfluss haben sie auf das menschliche Leben? Trotz deutlicher Sympathie für die stoische Anschauung, die Cicero nicht zuletzt als praktizierender Augur unterstützt, steht am Ende die Skepsis; ein Gottesbeweis kann nicht erbracht werden.Sprachen: Deutsch, Latein

Mit dem Titel seiner Schrift »De finibus bonorum et malorum« bezeichnet Cicero die Grenz- oder Extremwerte des Guten und Bösen, an denen sich menschliches Tun und Lassen zu orientieren hat. Analysiert werden die Ansichten und Epikureer und Stoiker, der Meinung der Peripatetiker bzw. Akademiker wird schließlich der Vorzug gegeben. Zur Popularisierung des ethischen Gedankenguts der klassischen antiken Philosophie hat Cicero mit diesem Werk in vorbildlicher und dauerhaft wirksamer Weise beigetragen. Die europäische Moralphilosophie der folgenden Jahrhunderte verdanken ihm viel.

Mit Recht hat man die besondere Leistung Ciceros in seiner Schrift »Über den Redner« darin gesehen, daß er das geistige Erbe Griechenlands mit römischer Lebenswirklichkeit verband und beides aus seinen persönlichen Anschauungen und Erfahrungen heraus zu einer neuen Einheit zusammenfügte. Damit sind die wesentlichen Quellen bezeichnet, die in diesem Werk zusammenfließen: die griechische rhetorische Theorie, die Praxis der römischen Beredsamkeit und Ciceros persönliche Entwicklung, deren Stufen im wesentlichen die Stationen der Laufbahn eines großen Redners waren.
