Marcus Tullius Cicero
M.T. Ciceronis De Re Publica Librorum Reliquiæ, edited by A. Maius, presents the surviving fragments of Cicero’s seminal work, 'De Re Publica' (On the Republic). This incomplete yet invaluable text offers profound insights into Cicero’s political philosophy and his vision for the ideal Roman state. Exploring themes of justice, governance, and the common good, Cicero draws upon his vast knowledge of history and law to articulate a framework for a balanced and virtuous republic. Though fragmentary, these relics provide a crucial window into the intellectual climate of ancient Rome and the enduring relevance of Cicero’s ideas. Students of political science, history, and classical literature will find this edition essential for understanding the foundations of Western political thought and the complexities of Roman republicanism.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
