This biography dives into the life of Cicero, a Roman statesman, scholar, philosopher, and one of the greatest orators and prose stylists in Roman history. He was a defender of optimate principles during political crises that led to the establishment of the Roman Empire, and his writings on rhetoric, philosophy, and politics continue to influence modern thought. Cicero's impact on the Latin language was immense, with more than three-quarters of extant Latin literature known to have existed in his lifetime attributed to him. His introduction of Hellenistic philosophy into Latin and creation of a Latin philosophical vocabulary with neologisms such as evidentia and essentia, distinguish him as a translator and philosopher. This biography offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and legacy of one of the most influential figures in Roman history.
