	Why Stoics
		Thomas Cahill's recent fascinating account of How the Irish Saved Civilization chronicles how monasteries, where monks' main occupation was making copies of classics, were established all over Europe during the Dark Ages.
		He doesn't give us titles, but we can be certain that De Officiis was their stock in trade, for 700 manuscript copies of it now exist in the libraries of the world; these copies would have been produced before the invention of printing in the mid-15th century.
		In the century after its publication, it averaged an edition a year and was translated into Spanish (1534), French (1537), Latin (1561), and German (1565), besides the English version by Sir Thomas Hoby, The Courtyer (1561), and the Polish adaptation by Lukasz Górnicki, Dworzanin polski (1566; "The Polish Courtier").

	Francis Bacon [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		She was a sister-in-law both to Sir Thomas Hoby, the esteemed English translator of Castiglione, and to Sir William Cecil (later Lord Burghley), Lord Treasurer, chief counselor to Elizabeth I, and from 1572-1598 the most powerful man in England.
		Like Cicero, Marcus Aurelius, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson, he combined wide and ample intellectual and literary interests (from practical rhetoric and the study of nature to moral philosophy and educational reform) with a substantial political career.
		In our own era Bacon would be acclaimed as a “public intellectual,” though his personal record of service and authorship would certainly dwarf the achievements of most academic and political leaders today.
