Theodorus of Cyrene is spoken of in a dialogue called what in Latin?
Theodorus of Cyrene Theodorus of Cyrene (Greek: Θεόδωρος ὁ Κυρηναῖος ) was an ancient Libyan Greek and lived during the 5th century BC. The only first-hand accounts of him that survive are in three of Plato's dialogues: the "Theaetetus", the "Sophist", and the "Statesman". In the former dialogue, he posits a mathematical theorem now known as the Spiral of Theodorus.
Brutus (Cicero) Cicero's Brutus (also known as "De claris oratibus") is a history of Roman oratory. It is written in the form of a dialogue, in which Brutus and Atticus ask Cicero to describe the qualities of all the leading Roman orators up to their time. Cicero then attempts to propose a reconstruction of Roman history. It should be noted that while it is written in the form of a dialogue, the majority of the talking is done by Cicero with occasional intervention by Brutus and Atticus. The work was probably composed in 46 BC, with the purpose of defending Cicero's own oratory. He begins with an introductory section on Greek oratory of the Attic, Asianic, and Rhodian schools, before discussing Roman orators, beginning with Lucius Junius Brutus, "The Liberator", though becoming more specific from the time of Marcus Cornelius Cethegus.
