Description

Saving the City provides a detailed analysis of the attempts of ancient writers and thinkers, from Homer to Cicero, to construct and recommend political ideals of statesmanship and ruling, of the political community and of how it should be founded in justice. Malcolm Schofield debates to what extent the Greeks and Romans deal with the same issues as modern political thinkers.

Author Biography:

Malcolm Schofield has taught at Cambridge for over 25 years, where he is a Fellow of St John's College and Reader in Ancient Philosophy. He is best known for his co-authorship of the second edition of The Presocratic Philosophers (1983). His publications on ancient political thought include The Stoic Idea of the City (1991).
