This is Volume 2 of C. Plinii Caecilii Secundi Epistolarum Libri Decem, Et Panegyricus, a collection of letters by Pliny the Younger, a prominent Roman author, lawyer, and magistrate. This edition includes extensive notes. Pliny's letters offer a fascinating glimpse into the daily life, social customs, and political landscape of the Roman Empire during the late 1st and early 2nd centuries CE. Addressed to emperors, senators, and close friends, the letters cover a wide range of topics, from personal anecdotes and philosophical reflections to legal cases and administrative matters. The Panegyricus is a notable oration delivered by Pliny in praise of Emperor Trajan, providing valuable insights into the ideals of Roman leadership and the relationship between the emperor and the Senate. This volume will be of interest to students and scholars of Roman history, classical literature, and Latin language.
