Description

Cicero's magnum opus is a comprehensive treatise on the nature of the state and the laws that govern it. Written in 55 BCE, De Re Publica De Legibus offers a profound exploration of politics, philosophy, and governance.

This work, comprising 533 pages, presents Cicero's thoughts on the ideal form of government, the role of the law, and the relationship between citizens and their leaders. Through his writings, we gain insight into the tumultuous era in which he lived, marked by the rise and fall of powerful figures such as Julius Caesar.

As a lawyer, orator, politician, and philosopher, Cicero's work provides a unique window into the mind of one of ancient Rome's most influential thinkers. This edition, published by Harvard University Press, presents Cicero's thoughts in English, making it accessible to readers interested in philosophy, politics, and history.
