Publisher's Synopsis
De Inventione est opus a Marco Tullio Cicerone scriptum, quod primum in adolescentia eius compositum est. Liber est de arte rhetorica, quae est ars loquendi bene et efficaciter. Cicero in hoc libro docet quomodo orator efficaciter argumenta sua exponat et persuasione suam audientiam convincat. De Inventione est primus liber ex libris rhetoricae Ciceronis, et continet duos libros. In primo libro, Cicero explicat quomodo argumenta sua bene disponat et ordinet, et in secundo libro, Cicero docet quomodo verba sua bene eligat et utatur. Liber est usus magno in scholis rhetoricae et philosophiae, et adhuc est consideratus ut opus fundamentale in arte rhetorica.But of the considerations which belong to things, some are connected with the thing itself which is the subject of discussion; some are considered in the performance of the thing; some are united with the thing itself; some follow in the accomplishment of the thing. Those things are connected with the thing itself which appear always to be attached to the thing and which cannot be separated from it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
