The Stoic Doctrine of Providence attempts to reconstruct the Stoic
doctrine of providence (as argued for in ancient texts now lost)
and explain its many fascinating philosophical issues. Examining
issues such as the compatibility between good and evil, and how a
provident god can serve as model of political leadership, this is
the first monograph of its kind to focus on the question of Stoic
providence. It offers an in-depth study of the meaning and
importance of this topic in eight distinct generations of Stoics,
from Zeno of Citium (fourth century B.C.) to Panaetius of Rhodes
(second century B.C.) to Marcus Aurelius (second century A.D.). The
Stoic Doctrine of Providence is key reading for anyone interested
in Ancient Stoicism or the study of divine providence in a
philosophical setting.
