Hegel's often-echoed verdict on the apolitical character of
philosophy in the Hellenistic age is challenged in this collection
of essays, originally presented at the sixth meeting of the
Symposium Hellenisticum. An international team of leading scholars
reveals a vigorous intellectual scene of great diversity: analyses
of political leadership and the Roman constitution in Aristotelian
terms; Cynic repudiation of the polis - but accommodation with its
rulers; Stoic and Epicurean theories of justice as the foundation
of society; Cicero's moral critique of the traditional political
pursuit of glory. The volume as a whole offers a comprehensive
guide to the main currents of social and political philosophy in a
period of increasing interest to classicists, philosophers and
cultural and intellectual historians.
