Cicero placed a high value on the importance of mastering the skill
of rhetoric, which is the art of using language as a means to
persuade. Such a skill was important especially in the practice of
law and politics, of which he did both. In the "Treatise of
Rhetorical Invention" Cicero outlines his theories on rhetoric in
this early composition. In "Topics" we find an exposition of the
tools that an orator may avail himself of in crafting a convincing
argument. Cicero is thought of as one of the greatest orators of
all time and it is due in no small part to his mastery of rhetoric.
This collection, translated by C. D. Yonge, will give the reader
great insight into the skill of rhetoric as it was thought of and
practiced by an early master of the skill.
