M. T. Cicero's Cato Major, Or Discourse On Old Age: Addressed To Titus Pomponius Atticus (1778) is a book written by the famous Roman philosopher and orator, Marcus Tullius Cicero. The book is a discourse on the subject of old age, and is addressed to Cicero's friend and correspondent, Titus Pomponius Atticus. In the book, Cicero presents his views on the subject of aging, including the physical and mental changes that come with it, as well as the social and cultural attitudes towards old age. He draws upon the wisdom of the ancient Roman statesman Cato the Elder, who is known for his stoic philosophy and his commitment to traditional Roman values. Cicero's discourse on old age is structured as a dialogue between Cato and two other characters, Scipio and Laelius. Through this dialogue, Cicero explores a range of topics related to aging, including the importance of staying active and engaged in life, the need for companionship and social interaction, and the value of wisdom and experience. Overall, M. T. Cicero's Cato Major, Or Discourse On Old Age: Addressed To Titus Pomponius Atticus is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the subject of aging.
