Описание: Less than two years before his murder, Cicero created a catalogue of his philosophical writings that included dialogues he had written years before, numerous recently completed works, and even one he had not yet begun to write, all arranged in the order he intended them to be read, beginning with the introductory Hortensius, rather than in accordance with order of composition. Following the order of the De divinatione catalogue, William H. F. Altman considers each of Ciceros late works as part of a coherent philosophical project determined throughout by its authors Platonism. Locating the parallel between Platos Allegory of the Cave and Ciceros Dream of Scipio at the center of Ciceros life and thought as both philosopher and orator, Altman argues that Cicero is not only Platos rival (it was Quintilian who called him Platonis aemulus) but also a peerless guide to what it means to be a Platonist, especially since Platos legacy was as hotly debated in his own time as it still is in ours. Distinctive of Ciceros late dialogues is the invention of a character named Cicero, an amiable if incompetent adherent of the New Academy whose primary concern is only with what is truth-like (veri simile). Following Augustines lead, Altman reveals the deliberate inadequacy of this pose and argues that Cicero himself, the writer of dialogues who used Cicero as one of many philosophical personae, must always be sought elsewhere: in direct dialogue with the dialogues of Plato, the teacher he revered and whose Platonism he revived. The Revival of Platonism in Ciceros Late Philosophy: Platonis aemulus and the Invention of Cicero is a must read for anyone working in classical studies, ancient philosophy, ancient history, or the history of philosophy.
