The Companion to Cicero by Joseph Pearl is a comprehensive guide to the life, works, and legacy of the famous Roman politician, orator, and philosopher, Marcus Tullius Cicero. The book is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different aspect of Cicero's life and career.

It also explores Cicero's personal relationships, including his marriage to Terentia and his close friendship with Atticus. The second part of the book delves into Cicero's literary works, including his speeches, letters, and philosophical treatises. The author provides detailed analysis and commentary on some of Cicero's most famous works, such as the Catilinarian Orations, the Philippics, and De Officiis. The final part of the book examines Cicero's enduring legacy and influence, both in his own time and throughout history. The author explores Cicero's impact on the development of Roman law, rhetoric, and philosophy, as well as his influence on later writers and thinkers, such as St. Augustine and Montaigne. Overall, the Companion to Cicero is an essential resource for anyone interested in the life and works of this influential figure from ancient Rome.
