Roman political thought
Definition
- Roman political thought is characterized by the influence of moral philosophy and individual ethics on theorizing political questions. This is due, in large part, to the centrality of Epicurean and Stoic philosophy, both of which primarily focus on individual well-being and on the moral status of the individual in the universe, more so than in the polis.
