The probable is 189 Int, II | consideration which attracted Cicero to these tenets was their evident 190 Int, II | their evident adaptability to the purposes of oratory, 191 Int, II | fact we shall find a key to unlock many difficulties 192 Int, II | which has given much trouble to editors.

It went to Cicero's heart that Carneades 214 Int, II | have found it necessary to oppose the beautiful Stoic 215 Int, II | plea that his one aim was to arouse men to the investigation 216 Int, II | one aim was to arouse men to the investigation of the 217 Int, II | Cicero often believed himself to be following Aristotle. 218 Int, II | passed undetected, owing to the strange oblivion into 219 Int, II | Still, Cicero contrives to correct many of the extravagances 220 Int, II | words are necessary in order to characterize Cicero's estimate 221 Int, II | approximated considerably to the Stoic teaching. While 222 Int, II | were completely indifferent to every adornment and beauty 223 Int, III | philosophical works.~It is usual to charge Cicero with a want 224 Int, III | philosopher, and on that score to depreciate his works. The 225 Int, III | it. Any one who attempts to reconcile the contradictions 226 Int, III | feel little inclination to cry out against the confusion 227 Int, III | so common, is due largely to the want, which I have already 228 Int, III | before the Christian era.

The explanation is to be found in the fact that 244 Int, III | cannot here discuss, as to the reasons Cicero had for 245 Int, III | that he found it impossible to include the great poet in 246 Int, III | condemnation, and being unwilling to allow that anything good 247 Int, III | school of Epicurus, preferred to keep silence, which nothing 248 Int, III | which nothing compelled him to break, since Lucretius was 249 Int, III | only slowly won his way to favour with the public.~ 250 Int, III | the public.~In addition to his desire to undermine 251 Int, III | In addition to his desire to undermine Epicureanism in 252 Int, III | Cicero had a patriotic wish to remove from the literature 253 Int, III | most far-fetched arguments to show that philosophy had 254 Int, III | early Italian peoples117. To those who objected that 255 Int, III | philosophy was best left to the Greek language, he replies 256 Int, III | accusing them of being untrue to their country118.

It is strange to find Cicero making such 266 Int, III | does for devoting himself to philosophy, and a careless 267 Int, III | reader might set them down to egotism. But it must never 268 Int, III | total devotion of a life to them seemed well enough 269 Int, III | of Romans who were ready to condemn such pursuits altogether, 270 Int, III | pursuits altogether, and to regard any fresh importation 271 Int, III | write on other subjects129.

That it was not 402 Int, IV | That it was not unnecessary to do so may be seen from the 403 Int, IV | of Goerenz. I now proceed to examine into the constitution 404 Int, IV | party whom Cicero so loves to honour. The Catulus from 405 Int, IV | son we shall have little to do. I merely inquire what 406 Int, IV | their position with respect to the philosophy of the time, 407 Int, IV | doubtless, have preferred to introduce the elder man 408 Int, IV | have been [xlv] compelled to exclude himself from the 409 Int, IV | Antiochus, which he professes to have heard210. For the arrangement 410 Int, IV | case of both a reason is to be found in their ατριψια 411 Int, IV | their ατριψια with respect to philosophy211. This ατριψια 412 Int, IV | This ατριψια did not amount to απαιδευσια, or else Cicero 413 Int, IV | claims of Catulus the younger to be considered a philosopher, 414 Int, IV | philosopher, he was closely linked to Cicero by other ties. During 415 Int, IV | Cicero cries, and deserves to be classed with the ancient 416 Int, IV | concentrated in his hands, were to die, the people answer with 417 Int, IV | He alone was bold enough to rebuke the follies, on the 418 Int, IV | either fear or hope, or cause to swerve from his own course219. 419 Int, IV | their unreserved approval to the measures taken for the 420 Int, IV | conspiracy, and was the first to confer on Cicero the greatest 421 Int, IV | did Cicero suppose himself to be allied to Catulus, that 422 Int, IV | suppose himself to be allied to Catulus, that a friend tried 423 Int, IV | Catulus, that a friend tried to console him for the death 424 Int, IV | Catulus, often referred to by Cicero, that Rome had 425 Int, IV | never been so unfortunate as to have two bad consuls in 426 Int, IV | may have been intended to point a contrast between 427 Int, IV | Cicero found it too late to withdraw the first edition 428 Int, IV | he affixed a prooemium to each book, Catulus being 429 Int, IV | contents of the lost prooemium to the Catulus. The achievements 430 Int, IV | of the elder man was made to cast its lustre on the younger. 431 Int, IV | allusion most likely was made to the connection of Archias 432 Int, IV | Archias with the Catuli, and to the poem he had written 433 Int, IV | consulship, which is alluded to in the Lucullus227. It is 434 Int, IV | Allusion was undoubtedly made to the Hortensius, in which 435 Int, IV | xlviii] which would fall to Cicero's share, a proposal 436 Int, IV | share, a proposal was made to discuss the great difference 437 Int, IV | schools. Catulus offered to give his father's views, 438 Int, IV | philosophy. Before we proceed to construct in outline the 439 Int, IV | Lucullus, it is necessary to speak of the character and 440 Int, IV | of him, he seldom omits to mention his sapientia, which 441 Int, IV | second Laelius229. It is easy to gather from the De Oratore, 442 Int, IV | company230. Appeal is made to him when any question is 443 Int, IV | and Theophrastus is most to his mind235. An account 444 Int, IV | Latin style made him seem to many the only speaker of 445 Int, IV | of the visit of Carneades to Rome240, he does not declare 446 Int, IV | Cicero would not have failed to tell us, as he does in the 447 Int, IV | passage in the Lucullus seems to imply it245. Still Philo 448 Int, IV | literature or society could fail to be well acquainted with 449 Int, IV | were probably not known to Catulus248.~I now proceed 450 Int, IV | Catulus248.~I now proceed to draw out from the references 451 Int, IV | Academic teaching appear to be distinctly aimed at Cicero, 452 Int, IV | part of Academicism253 seem to be intended for Catulus, 453 Int, IV | be intended for Catulus, to whom the maintenance of 454 Int, IV | been handled appertains to Catulus. The exposition 455 Int, IV | exposition. Everything points to the conclusion that this 456 Int, IV | Antiochean opinions, but to what extent is uncertain256. 457 Int, IV | philosophy, corresponding to the speech of Varro in the 458 Int, IV | difficulty of understanding to whom, if not to Hortensius, 459 Int, IV | understanding to whom, if not to Hortensius, the substance 460 Int, IV | Posteriora it was necessary to make Varro speak first and 461 Int, IV | have supposed Hortensius to give would be within the 462 Int, IV | would only be put forward to show that the New Academic 463 Int, IV | had ended in a conversion to philosophy of the orator 464 Int, IV | from whom it was named. To any such conversion we have 465 Int, IV | in which Hortensius stood to Cicero, also his character 466 Int, IV | attainments, are too well known to need mention here. He seems 467 Int, IV | need mention here. He seems to have been as nearly innocent 468 Int, IV | possible for an educated man to be. Cicero's materials for 469 Int, IV | which he takes in his answer to Varro, part of which is 470 Int, IV | philosophy, who appeals to great and ancient names 471 Int, IV | had been made, according to Lucullus, of Empedocles, 472 Int, IV | since he found it necessary to "manufacture" (fabricari) 473 Int, IV | fabricari) Latin terms to represent the Greek265. 474 Int, IV | dogmatists gave their assent to the truth of phenomena. 475 Int, IV | the truth of phenomena. To this a retort is made by 476 Int, IV | he had not had occasion to Latinize the terms καταληψις ( 477 Int, IV | the abstract, as opposed to the individual καταληπτικη 478 Int, IV | terms in the Stoic, and to some extent in the Antiochean 479 Int, IV | which Lucullus is obliged to translate for himself267. 480 Int, IV | Cicero in this speech was to justify from the history 481 Int, IV | the New Academy, and not to advance sceptical arguments 482 Int, IV | reserved for his answer to Lucullus. In his later speech, 483 Int, IV | merely introduced in order to disarm Lucullus, who was 484 Int, IV | disarm Lucullus, who was to speak next268. Yet these 485 Int, IV | speech, although foreign to its main intention269. He 486 Int, IV | the reasons for refusing to assent to the truth of each 487 Int, IV | reasons for refusing to assent to the truth of each class270. 488 Int, IV | was allowed by Lucullus to have considerably damaged 489 Int, IV(270)| where there is a reference to the "hesternus sermo."~ 490 Int, IV | expressions of Lucullus seem to imply that this part of 491 Int, IV | his letter of dedication to Varro, describes his own 492 Int, IV | merely attaches Philo's name to those general New Academic 493 Int, IV | like Cato should be chosen to represent Antiochus, however 494 Int, IV | from Zeno. The rôle given to Hortensius, however, was 495 Int, IV | definitely committed himself to sceptical principles. So 496 Int, IV | cannot have been reduced to the comparatively secondary 497 Int, IV | secondary position assigned to Hortensius in the Academica 498 Int, IV | occupy the [lvii] place given to Varro in the second edition276. 499 Int, IV | connected with the Academica to render it necessary to treat 500 Int, IV | Academica to render it necessary to treat of him farther.~b.
