Abstract:

In the Pro Archia Cicero writes that Alexander, looking upon the tomb of Achilles, cried out, ‘O happy youth, who found a Homer to sing your praises!’; words truly spoken, adds Cicero, since without Homer Achilles' tomb would have buried the great man's fame along with his body. And in the Tusculan Disputations he writes that the Athenian Themistocles, when asked why he spent his nights wandering about the city, replied that the trophies of Miltiades kept him awake. Juxtaposing one great man and the reminder of another, both anecdotes present vivid and memorable images of rivalry between the ambitious among the living and the high-achievers among the dead. A competition of this kind can be direct, between the man commemorated by a monument and the man viewing it, as are the rivalries of Alexander and Achilles, Themistocles and Miltiades, or it can be indirect, as in the Pro Archia, where with a sleight of hand Cicero replaces the rivalry between Achilles and Alexander with the competition between the Iliad and Achilles' physical monument. A great mound bears witness to Achilles' death at Troy, but the outburst of the competitive Alexander testifies that a poem is a better memorial than a tomb.

Abstract:

The Fifth Tusculan Disputation is the finest of the five books, its nearest rival being the First. 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. The book presents Latin text with facing-page English translation, introduction and commentary.

Abstract:

Cicero wrote his later philosophical works as an Academic sceptic. In those dialogues, he often writes speeches for and against a proposition, leaving the reader’s judgement free. But in his Tusculan Disputations, Cicero speaks only against an interlocutor’s stated belief. He does this five times. The theses of Cicero’s five arguments form a Stoic outlook on happiness. Can the Tusculans be sceptical? I argue that Cicero aims to convince neither his interlocutor, nor the reader, of the truth of what he argues for. Rather, he aims to argue us out of each stated belief, and not into any other. I further argue Cicero the author chooses to argue against exactly the five beliefs of his interlocutors not to argue for any dogmatic position, but to argue against five beliefs that are very widely believed, and troubling to believe. Academic scepticism can relieve us of those beliefs and troubles.

Abstract:

This chapter provides a summary of Book III and IV of Cicero's Tusculans. It discusses how the two books deal with the question of whether the wise man (sapiens) is subject to mental distress or strong or excessive emotions. It also explains the stoic view of the wise man, to which Cicero adheres throughout, that suggests that he is virtually self-refuting. The chapter addresses questions on the isolation of mental and emotional problems, which Cicero regarded as less important than the conquest of the fear of death and the endurance of physical pain. It looks at the Roman attitude to Greek openness about homosexuality that compelled Cicero to agree with Epicurus.

Abstract:

This chapter provides the original text and translation of Book V of Cicero's Tusculans. It explores the value of philosophy that combines passionate eloquence with linguistic control and shows a wealth of unusual and sometimes surprising metaphor. It also points out how Book V as a whole is almost free of the anacolutha that was frequent in Book II, implying that the exploitation of the freedom of Latin word order is masterly. The chapter discusses how some passages in Book V lacked complete coherence of thought even though the transitions were indeed skilful, such as 'virtue enough for the happy life'. It assesses the fundamental tenet of philosophy, such as doubts and weaknesses.

Abstract:

This chapter provides the original text and translation of Book II of Cicero's Tusculans. It explains how Roman oratory is in decline and points out why it is time to seize philosophy from the Greeks, arguing both sides of each case and appealing to a sophisticated literary public by paying proper attention to style. It also follows Philo in separating formal rhetorical instruction from the philosophical disputation. The chapter mentions the interlocutor in Book II, who speaks of the great benefit he has gained from the preceding day's discussion of death. It analyses how benefits of the discussion of death come to a person of suitable character.

Abstract:

This chapter introduces Cicero's Tusculan Disputations, which show evidence of careful structure in their broad outline like all Cicero's philosophical writings of the years 45–44 B.C. It focuses on Book II and V of the Tusculans that confronts the great ultimate of death and other ills. It also mentions pain as the subject of Book II, which mattered more than it has come to do since the arrival of anaesthetics. The chapter addresses questions of whether ills, pain, mental distress, and other emotional disturbances can destroy 'happiness' or whether the 'wise man' is always 'happy'. It also deals with the great question of Hellenistic thinking and debate of whether virtue is enough for the 'happy' life.
