The Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio is a book written by Evan Taylor Sage in 1910. It is a translation and analysis of a Latin text known as the Consolatio, which was falsely attributed to the Roman statesman and philosopher Cicero. The Consolatio is a work of consolation literature, meant to provide comfort and solace to those who are grieving or experiencing hardship. Sage's book contains an introduction that provides background information on the Consolatio and its authorship. He then presents a translation of the Latin text, followed by a detailed analysis of its themes and rhetorical strategies. Sage examines the Consolatio's use of Stoic philosophy, its emphasis on the transience of human life, and its portrayal of death as a natural and inevitable part of the human experience. The Pseudo-Ciceronian Consolatio is a valuable resource for scholars of ancient literature and philosophy, as well as anyone interested in the history of consolation literature. Sage's translation and analysis offer insight into the ways in which ancient writers sought to provide comfort and meaning in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
