Cicero/On Obligation
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay that summarizes the major points from Cicero's treatise on obligations. The writer argues that this brilliant philosopher's observations on what constitutes honorable and useful behavior remains applicable as a useful guide to the modern reader. Cicero divided his text into three books. The first book deals with his thoughts on honorable acts, the second on useful and the third addresses conflict between honorable acts and seemingly useful acts. In his introduction to his translation of On Obligation, P.G. Walsh points out that Cicero insisted that that conflict only existed between honorable acts and "apparently" useful acts, as "Cicero argues throughout that the intrinsically useful is identical with the honorable" (xxiii). This examination of On Obligation summarizes Cicero's major points in this text before providing discussion. No additional sources cited.
