To delo je izgubljeno — neprekinjeno izvirno besedilo se ni ohranilo. Stran zbira, kar je o delu znano iz antičnih pričevanj in iz avtorjevih lastnih navedb nanj drugod v korpusu.
Kar je znano
Self-consolation written after the death of his daughter Tullia in February 45 BC; survives only in fragments. Status "lost": no continuous text survives; the only complete "Consolatio" in circulation is the 16th-c. Sigonio forgery, which must NOT be used. The english_file is an editorial note, not a translation.
