Reviews

This volume represents a magnificent treatment of a major period of European intellectual history... [It] provides a comprehensive overview of Roman philosophy, but it does much more than that. It invites a reflection on the broader nature of what Roman philosophy actually is and considers a manifold range of sources, including some more often considered literary, rather than philosophical. The volume makes a cogent argument for Roman philosophy as a distinctive phenomenon and a worthy object of study in its own right, rather than merely a poor derivative of a superior Greek original. * International Philosophical Quarterly *
