De Natura Deorum
also: de natura deorum, On the Nature of the Gods, tertium de natura deorum
Cicero's three-book dialogue on the nature of the gods, the immediate companion to De Divinatione; Quintus repeatedly refers to its books (Cotta's, Lucilius Balbus's, and the second book's account of providence).
Reading notes
- On Divination §1.7 those three books which we wrote on the nature of the gods
Cicero's dialogue De Natura Deorum, the immediate companion to this work. De Divinatione takes up the question of divination that the earlier dialogue had deliberately set aside.
