The Fifth Tusculan Disputation is the finest of the five books, its nearest rival being the First (already edited in this series). The middle three books, represented in this edition by the Second, are, as the author clearly intended, less elevated, though still showing Cicero's flair for elegant and lively exposition, and providing much valuable information about the teaching of the main Hellenistic philosophical schools, especially the Stoics. They argue that the perfect human life, or complete human well-being, that of the 'wise man', is unaffected by physical and mental distress or extremes of emotion. Against this background the Fifth puts the positive, mainly Stoic, case that virtue, moral goodness, is alone and of itself sufficient for complete well-being, providing an impressive climax to the whole work. Text with translation and comentary. (Aris and Phillips 1989)

Excerpt from Tusculan Disputations, I, II, V: With Introduction and Notes The fact that the Tusculan Disputations are read less than was formerly the case is perhaps due in part to the lack of an edition in English suitable for general classroom use. If so, it is hoped that the present volume may meet this need. With proper' helps, Books I and II are not too diffi cult for even the early years of the college course, and in content they are admirably adapted for the work of that period. Certainly no one of Cicero's longer philosophical treatises now extant can rival the Tusculan Disputatz'ons in human interest; and the fact that in this work Cicero joins himself to the immortal band who caught something of Socrates' faith, thus leading a revolt against the tide of gross materialism which was sweeping over Italy, is a. Circumstance that entitles him to a general and sympathetic hearing. With this thought in mind the notes on Books I and II have been adapted somewhat more carefully to the needs of students in the first two years of the college course. Various considerations led to the exclusion of Books III and IV from this edition, among others the compass of the volume itself. The omission of these books scarcely mars the unity of the treatise as a. Whole, for their substance is summed up at the beginning of Book V. This last-named book, from the point of view of abstract philosophy, is by far the most important division of the work, and in it advanced students will find a somewhat easy gate to the more difficult dc Finibus.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... 18. neque . . . hilum: and . . . nothing; cf. nihilum, nihil. 20. L. Crassus . . . M. Antonius: famous orators of the preceding generation. Being now dead, they might be conceived of as dwelling in the lower world. 21. quoniam: (and this I say) since. 22. adhibere: in the legal sense, retain the services of. 23. maxima corona: before a mighty throng (i.e. of interested shades); cf. spissae coronae, Horace, Ep. ii. 3. 381. The ablative is one of attendant circumstance. 25. ista: that sort of thing. The use of this pronoun as expressive of contempt is common; see also p. 6. 15, note. esse: really exists. 26. An: whatI the question being spoken in a tone of surprise. 28. Male hercule narras: Vm exceedingly sorry to hear that. Page 6. 1. enim: indeed, a meaning of the word frequently met with in early Latin. non: sc. posset (for mood and tense, cf. offerret, p. 15. 22, note). 2. haec . . . portenta convincere: discredit these marvels. 4. pleni libri sunt . . . philosophorum: there are books full (of such matter) written by philosophers, etc. 8. Si ergo: if then, as you say. miseri: predicate adjective; homines may be supplied as subject. ne . . . quidem: strictly, not . . . either, a very common meaning of the phrase. The addition here of ulli at the end of the sentence complicates the translation: none have existence either (cf. esse, p. 5. 25). The thought is, granting that souls suffer no distress in the lower world, it follows that none have existence there either (comfort being out of the question in such surroundings). 14. ne . . . quidem: see preceding note. 15. Prorsus isto modo: precisely as you put it. Here, as often, iste is used as the pronoun of the second person (i.e. in designating something connected with the person...

Excerpt from Cicero's Tusculan Disputations: I. On the Contempt of Death; II. On Bearing Pain; III. On Grief; IV. On the Passions; V. Is Virtue Sufficient for Happiness? The theories of the soul inconsistent, and those con sistent, with its continued life. The belief of the ancients in immortality proved by com memorative rites and the honor paid to sepulchres. On this, as on every subject, the common sense of mankind is the law of nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
