Description - Greek and Roman Political Ideas by Melissa Lane
A Pelican introduction to political philosophy in Ancient Greece and Rome
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.
