The Rhetorical works of Cicero include his Orator, which is addressed to his friend Brutus, and is a labored defense of his favorite notion that a perfect orator needs to possess an almost universal knowledge; Topica, or a compend of Aristotle's Topics; Oratoriae Partitiones, in which the proper arrangement of the parts of speech is discussed; Brutus, in which he gives a brief account of the most eminent orators of Greece and Rome; and the De Oratore of which this volume is a translation. This latter work was regarded by the friends of Cicero as his most finished production. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. |
