Distinguished Latinist Andrew R. Dyck presents the first English commentary on Cicero's De Natura Deorum II in over fifty years. This text is the only connected exposition of Stoic theology to survive from the ancient world. It includes an argument for the existence of the gods from the construction of the cosmos taken up by later thinkers, as well as an exposition of the world-order and divine providence according to Stoic doctrine. After a period in which Cicero's philosophical works were treated mainly as sources for reconstructing the thought of earlier philosophers, they are now coming to be appreciated as intelligent and skillful works in their own right. This book will assist students and others studying Cicero's De Natura Deorum II by providing its historical context, improved Latin text, and a detailed commentary with references to the latest literature on the subject.

The last two decades have seen a growing interest in Jerome's epistolary, with the publication of several commentaries on single letters; however, no full-scale study has so far been devoted to Epistle 107, Ad Laetam de institutione filiae. This didactic and parenetic letter, addressed to the Roman noblewoman Laeta around 401-402 AD, is indeed among the most relevant pieces of Jerome's letter collection, and while it has aroused the interest of scholars interested in the problems of Late Antique pedagogy and female virginity, it has so far received limited attention on a philological and literary level.

Das Antidotarium Nicolai ist das wirkmächtigste Antidotar des Mittelalters und der frühen Neuzeit. Der Text ist in nahezu alle Volkssprachen Europas wie auch ins Hebräische und Arabische übertragen und bereits 1471 gedruckt worden. Die lateinische handschriftliche Überlieferung dürfte im vierstelligen Bereich liegen.
In krassem Widerspruch zu seiner Bedeutung ist der Stand der Erforschung des Textes, der als äußerst mangelhaft zu charakterisieren ist. Das beginnt mit der völlig unklaren Textgestalt auf Detail- und Gesamtebene, setzt sich mit den Problemen rund um Autorschaft, Entstehungszeitpunkt und -ort fort und mündet schließlich in Fragen nach der konkreten Bedeutung einzelner Teile und der Umsetzung der in ihnen genannten Bestimmungen in die Praxis.
