The role of philosophy as a valued and effective part of the
culture of civilized Romans has aroused an increasing amount of
scholarly interest in recent years. In this volume, which gathers
together nine papers delivered at a series of seminars on
philosophy and Roman society in the University of Oxford, scholars
of classical literature, Roman history, and ancient philosophy
investigate the place of Platonism and Aristotelianism in Roman
intellectual, cultural, and political life from the second century
BC to the third century AD. In addition to chapters on such
important figures as Cicero, Varro, Plutarch, Favorinus, Celsus,
and Porphyry, the book contains essays on the tradition of
Aristotle's library at Rome, the theory of the mixed constitution,
and the anonymous commentary on Plato's Theaetetus. It thus forms a
complement to Philosophia Togata I which addressed the importance
of the doctrines of the Hellenistic schools to Roman society during
the first century BC.
