What is politics?
What are the origins of political philosophy?
What can we learn from the Greeks and Romans?
In Greek and Roman Political Ideas, acclaimed classics scholar Melissa Lane
introduces the reader to the foundations of Western political thought, from the
Greeks, who invented democracy, to the Romans, who created a republic and then
transformed it into an empire. Tracing the origins of political philosophy from
Socrates to Cicero to Plutarch, Lane reminds us that the birth of politics was
as much a story of individuals as ideas.
