Philosophy and rhetoric in search of the ideal virtuous speaker
Marcus Tullius Cicero was a Roman statesman and politician of the Republican period, orator, philosopher, and scientist. One of the greatest figures in the history of Western civilization. Thanks to his oratorical talent, he had a brilliant career: he entered the Senate in 73 BC and became consul in 63 BC.
"On Oratory" is a unique publication that is a collection of thoughts and experiences of the great orator and politician Cicero. This work was written in the era of Antiquity, when the art of speaking was considered one of the most important.
Cicero was a contemporary of Gaius Julius Caesar and witnessed the collapse of Rome's republican institutions. In his works, he combined philosophy and rhetoric, explaining that a citizen should be virtuous and that even one citizen can become convincing to all fellow citizens.
Cicero is considered one of the most brilliant orators of Antiquity. In Rome, the word in the mouth of an orator was compared to a sword in the hands of a warrior, so it is not surprising that the honor and respect that was shown to Cicero.
In this edition, the author shares his experience and principles of the craft, discussing the ideal image of the speaker as an exponent of the human ideal of his time. This publication will be useful for anyone interested in history, philosophy, and rhetoric, as well as for those who want to learn how to speak beautifully and convincingly.
