Les oraisons, Volume 2 presents a collection of orations by Marcus Tullius Cicero, translated and annotated by Joseph Fran ois Bourgoing de Villefore. This volume offers readers a glimpse into the art of rhetoric and persuasive speaking in ancient Rome. Cicero's speeches, renowned for their eloquence and insight, provide valuable perspectives on Roman politics, society, and philosophy. Villefore's translation makes these classical texts accessible to a French-speaking audience, inviting reflection on enduring themes of justice, governance, and human nature. This edition is a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in classical literature and the history of rhetoric.
