  A collection of the most influential speeches by Marcus Tullius Cicero, Rome’s greatest orator and statesman, The Orations of Cicero showcases his rhetorical brilliance, political principles, and defense of the Roman Republic. Spanning legal arguments, public denunciations, and philosophical reflections, these speeches reveal Cicero’s efforts to uphold justice, combat corruption, and resist the rise of autocracy—most notably in his fierce opposition to Mark Antony in the Philippics . Written with eloquence and moral conviction, Cicero’s orations remain foundational texts in the study of rhetoric, law, and classical political thought. They offer invaluable insight into the turbulent final years of the Roman Republic and the mind of a man who believed deeply in the power of words to shape history, preserve liberty, and defend the rule of law.

  The Way of Heaven and Earth -...

  A crisis of polarization more and more threatens the future of civilization. Whether it’s philosophy, theology, politics, or culture, we find ourselves falling into stark either/or dilemmas: Religion or science? Conservative or liberal? Faith or works? We can’t help but choose one idea at the expense of the other, falling into zero-sum games, mutual extremes, and the endless division of human life.   In The Way of Heaven and Earth, Matthew Becklo offers a way of interpreting this crisis: Christ and “the Catholic both/and.” Framing our greatest dilemmas as “heaven-earth dilemmas”—choices between God or man, God’s place or man’s place, the spiritual or the physical, or the spirit or the flesh—Becklo shows that our greatest hope for overcoming our divisions is in Christ, who is “the Way of heaven and earth,” and the Catholic Church, which is the fullness of the Way.   With the help of Scripture, Catholic teaching, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, and various philosophers, theologians, and artists, The Way of Heaven and Earth finds new hope in this forgotten Way, which calls us into the paradoxes of the human journey.

  Famous Men of Greece

  John Henry Haaren, A. B. Poland

  Greeks were history’s great men of thought. John Haaren has collected stories from the lives of thirty famous Greek men, detailing the rise, Golden Age, and fall of Greece. Among these men are Aristotle, Ptolemy, Ulysses, Pericles, and Alexander the Great. Children will be delighted to read and understand why the scope of Greek accomplishment is still known today as the “Greek Miracle.” 
  This book provides a great introduction to ancient Greece, not only for children, but for adults who missed out on a classical education. The title (originally given when the book was first published in 1904) is a little misleading, as the book introduces gods and goddesses, as well as talking about the famous heroes and leaders of the former nation. However, the book is a very good resource to help both adults and children understand references in literature and elsewhere to these individuals who have had influence on our own stories and government.
