M. Tulii Ciceronis Ad Quintum Fratrem Dialogi Tres de Oratore: Cum Excerptis Ex Notis Variorum (Classic Reprint)

The text of this edition of Cicero de Oratore, with a few inconsiderable exceptions, is that of Ernesti.' The edition of Dr. Carey has furnished some corrections in the punctuation. In selecting notes, it'was at first in tended to give short extracts from the principal common taries on this work, especially those of Proust, Olivet and Ernesti, as sqholia to the more difficult passages; a mode of illustration, as wa's thought, well adapted to the wants of those, who usually read this treatise in the course of their education. After considerable portion of the text was printed, it was determined, at the suggestion of the publishers, to give a part of the notes in English. The number of Latin notes is less, than was at first con templated. The whole number of notes is small; and it is recommended to the student, in reading this work, to have by him the Clavis Cicergniazga of Braesti; as With this help properly used, ho will seldnm be left 111 doubt as to the meaning of his author.... It will be. Observed, that, in the notes, no account is given 01 the orators, po ets, philosophers and historiaas, . Whose names - so fre quently occur in these dialogues. Such accounts have been omitted, as the student can easily find them a classical dictionary. J. L. K.
