CICERO
CICERO. CATO MAIOR DE SENECTUTE, $0.80
Edited by FRANK G. MOORE, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Latin and of Roman Archaeology, Dartmouth College. Text Edition, $0.30
An edition embodying much new critical material, and abundant grammatical helps. Unusual attention has been paid to those rhetorical features which are most likely to be misunderstood, to the confusion of the argument, while at the same time both grammar and rhetoric have been treated as a means to an end. The text is supplied with very full footnotes. The scholarly introduction sets forth the character of Cato clearly and impressively, and is supplemented by a comparative list of distinguished old men, and by verses by Pope Leo XIII on Frugality and the Green Old Age. There are critical notes, and an index.
CICERO. LAELIUS DE AMICITIA, $0.75
Edited by CLIFTON PRICE, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Latin, University of California. Text Edition, $0.30
This edition enables the student to understand and interpret the text, and contains enough elementary matter to adapt it to use in the best preparatory schools, and at the same time enough advanced material for the first year in college. The book is complete in itself, the grammatical principles being stated in the notes. The notes at the bottom of the page have been made very comprehensive, and the proper balance has been preserved between the notes on syntax and those on interpretation. The system of cross-reference, and the emphasis laid on the figures of speech and grammar, form strong features of the book.
