Marcus Tullius Cicero was a practicing lawyer, politician, and philosopher in first century BCE Rome. He understood that living in the world requires a form of writing and thinking that acknowledges our embodied experience. This book offers a psychoanalytic treatment of Cicero and a re-examination of the relation between truth and enjoyment.
