Resumo: | In this article we deal with two excerpts from the Cicero's Lucullus - VIII 23 and XII 38-39 - where there are two important concepts for the understanding of his quarrel with the scepticism of Carneades of Cyrene, namely, the notions of virtutum cognitio and perspicui adsensio. After an introduction where we locate the text of Lucullus within the context of Academica and its intimate relation with the theme of lex naturalis, in the first section we show how Cicero aligns himself with the Socratic thesis, regarding the relation between knowledge and virtue. In the second section we treat the virtutum cognitio as a connatural moral notion prior to speculation. And, finally, in the third section we treat on perspicui adsensio as a predecessor notion of moral action. We conclude by reiterating that these two passages in question must be understood within the general theme of Ciceronian moral epistemology, which includes its natural law, which considers him as an authentic ancient moral naturalist. |

Neste artigo tratamos de dois trechos do texto Lucullus de Cícero – Lucullus VIII 23 e XII 38-39 – onde há a apresentação de dois importantes conceitos para a compreensão de sua querela com o ceticismo de Carnéades de Cirene, a saber, as noções de virtutum cognitio e de perspicui adsensio. Após uma introdução onde situamos o texto de Lucullus dentro do contexto dos Academica e de sua íntima relação com o tema da lex naturalis, na primeira seção mostramos como Cícero se alinha com a tese socrática sobre a relação entre conhecimento e virtude. Na segunda seção tratamos da virtutum cognitio como uma noção moral conatural prévia à especulação. E na terceira seção tratamos da perspicui adsensio como uma noção predecessora da ação moral. Concluímos reiterando que estes dois trechos em questão devem ser compreendidos dentro do tema geral da epistemologia moral ciceroniana, que inclui seu jusnaturalismo, pondo-o, assim, como um autêntico naturalista moral.
