History Of Famous Orators

Cicero's influence on rhetoric and philosophy is profound, as he introduced Greek thought to Rome and established a foundational Latin vocabulary. This book features two key works: "Brutus," which surveys notable Roman and Greek orators during the civil war's aftermath, and "The Orator," a critical analysis of eloquence and effective speaking style. Both pieces reflect Cicero's mastery of classical Latin and his enduring impact on the art of oratory.
