Laelius, on Friendship and the Dream of Scipio

Laelius, on Friendship and the Dream of Scipio

by Marcus Tullius Cicero, J.G.F. Powell

About this book

Cicero's essay On Friendship (Laelius de amicitia) is of interest as much for the light it sheds on Roman society as for its embodiment of ancient philosophical views on the subjects of friendship. The Dream of Scipio was excerpted in late antiquity from Cicero's De Republica, a dialogue in six books which now only survives in fragmentary form.
