Pliny

""The Letters of Caius Plinius Caecilius Secundus: The Translation of Melmoth"" is a collection of letters written by Pliny the Younger, a Roman author, lawyer, and magistrate who lived in the 1st century AD. The book is a translation of the original Latin letters by William Melmoth, a British lawyer and translator who lived in the 18th century. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including politics, philosophy, literature, and daily life in ancient Rome. They also provide insights into the character and personality of Pliny himself, as well as his relationships with other prominent figures of his time, such as the emperor Trajan. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Roman history and culture, as well as the art of letter writing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
