M. Cornelii Frontonis Reliquiae, Ab Angelo Maio Primum Editae presents the rediscovered fragments of Marcus Cornelius Fronto, a renowned Roman orator and tutor of Emperor Marcus Aurelius.

Edited by Barthold Georg Niebuhr, this volume provides a critical edition of Fronto's work, making it an essential resource for scholars of Roman history, classical literature, and rhetoric. The rediscovery and publication of these fragments have significantly enriched our understanding of Roman intellectual history and the art of letter-writing in antiquity.
