The Academica Of Cicero (1874)

The Academica of Cicero is a philosophical treatise written by the ancient Roman statesman and orator, Marcus Tullius Cicero. Originally written in Latin, this book was first published in 45 BC and has since been translated into many languages. The book is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of philosophy. The first part discusses the nature of knowledge and the different ways in which it can be acquired. The second part focuses on the concept of skepticism and the idea that knowledge is uncertain and elusive. The third part explores the idea of virtue and the role it plays in leading a good life. Finally, the fourth part discusses the nature of the gods and their role in human affairs. Throughout the book, Cicero draws on the ideas of the ancient Greek philosophers, particularly the skeptics and the Stoics, to develop his own philosophical ideas. The Academica of Cicero is a classic work of philosophy that continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
