"The notions of the cosmic city and the common law are central to early Stoic political thought. As Katja Maria Vogt shows, together they make up one complex theory. A city is a place governed by the law. Yet only the law pervading the cosmos can be considered a true law, and thus the cosmos is the only real city. A city is also a dwelling-place - in the case of the cosmos, the dwelling-place of all human beings. The thought that we should view all other human beings as belonging to "our city" is at the heart of Stoic cosmopolitanism. All human beings are citizens of the cosmic city in the sense of living in the world." "As Vogt shows, political philosophy is central to early Stoic philosophy, and is deeply tied to the Stoics' conceptions of reason and wisdom. Vogt's argument is broad in scope: She explores the Stoics' idea of the cosmic city, their notion of citizen-gods, and their account of the law. Her work will interest scholars and students of the Stoics as well as those of political theory and philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.

The ancient Greeks invented democracy. They also invented political theory. This book seeks to show that these were not unrelated achievements. The development of political theory accompanied the growth of democracy at Athens in the fifth century BC. By analysing the writings of Protagoras the sophist, Thucydides the historian, and Democritus the cosmologist in the context of political developments and speculation about the universe, Dr Farrar reveals the existence of a distinctive approach to the characterisation of democratic order, and in doing so demonstrates the virtues of Thucydides' historical conception of politics. Thucydides' history is shown to be an argument for the political force of historical judgement.
