Description

Explore the complex landscape of Imperial period thought with Philosophy in the Roman Empire: Ethics, Politics and Society. Part of the Ashgate Ancient Philosophy Series, this scholarly work by Michael Trapp uses a wide range of sources to examine how philosophy shaped life during the Roman Empire. This study covers the essential connections between personal morality and social organization. It investigates how individuals pursued happiness and self-improvement, how they managed emotions, and how they viewed their obligations to others. Readers will gain a deep understanding of ideas regarding the self, personhood, and the working of a good community. Beyond personal ethics, the text addresses political theory and constitutional matters, including the role of the ruler. By analyzing the works of thinkers such as Alexander of Aphrodisias, Aspasius, Alcinous, and Hierocles, this book provides a comprehensive look at the philosophical foundations that influenced Roman society and its political structures.
