Is there a collection of short answer questions, kinda like the quizzes but more open ended? (Obviously these would not be gradeable like multiple choice)
Or put another way: a collection of questions to ponder/consider while one studies Epicurus?

Is there a discussion anywhere about the mode in which the letters were composed?
To elaborate, my understanding is that letters at the time would be written as a normal letter or a ‘letter’ really intended for a broader audience distribution, copying, etc
(or somewhere in between these two poles)

If I am interested in reading Torquatus' Presentation in a physical printed media form, is the Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy edition of Cicero On Ends a decent way to do so?
I already have a copy of AA Long and DN Sedleys The Hellenistic Philosophers, is that a resource people have found to be of any value?
