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 topic of old age, and is addressed to Cicero's friend and correspondent, Titus Pomponius Atticus. In the book, Cicero presents his thoughts on the subject of aging, including the benefits and drawbacks of growing old, and how to approach the end of one's life with dignity and grace. He draws on the example of Cato the Elder, a famous Roman statesman and philosopher who lived to a ripe old age, as a model for how to live one's later years. Cicero's writing is characterized by his trademark eloquence and clarity, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the philosophy of aging and the art of living well.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
