The Life of Cicero

De: Plutarch, Bernadotte Perrin - translator

Narrado por: Andrea Giordani

In The Life of Cicero, Plutarch details the priceless contributions Cicero made to Roman society. He translated the works of Greek philosophers into Latin, gained acclaim as an orator and lawyer, and was elected to office. Politics ultimately got the better of him, however, and his life ended in assassination while in exile.

Cicero’s ideas live on through his body of work, but to learn about the man himself, Plutarch’s biography is an excellent starting point.

Needs to be edited

While the narrator did a fine job, the editing of this audiobook is problematic. On more than a couple occasions, there are repeated phrases and words.
