About This Item
1658 Cornelius Nepos Lives ROME Roman Lawyers Philosophy Cato the Elder Hackiana
Cornelius Nepos was a 1st-century BC Roman author whose works have mostly all been lost. However, his one surviving work is "Excellentium Imperatorum Vitae" which is a collection of biographical descriptions of Roman and foreign leaders. According to Roberts, this work details: "Roman kings, generals, lawyers, orators, poets, historians, and philosophers."
Notable figures covered by Nepos include Themistocles, Lysander, and most famously Cato the Elder. This 1658 printing is a rare edition by Hackiana.
