Extractions: "Neal Wood's new study comes as a compelling invitation to give Cicero once again the attention he deserves in our account of the history of political ideas."John Nicholson, Classical Outlook "An important study, not simply because it is the first of its kind but because it presents the complex character of this scholar-politician and the relation of his life to his writings in greater depth than any recent study. . . . It is the constant temptation of Cicero scholarship to simplify this complex figure, a temptation too often indulged in recent decades. Neal Wood's study is a quantum improvement over the one-dimensional portrayals of the past."J. Jackson Barlow, American Political Science Review "Cicero's attraction for Neal Wood lies in his influence on later Western political philosophyAugustine, Bodin, Locke, Montesquieuand especially in his unashamed defense of private property and economic individualism as part of a theory of state (the contemporary relevance is patent)."Andrew Lintott, Times Higher Education Supplement DESCRIPTION (back to top) In this close examination of the social and political thought of Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 B.C.), Neal Wood focuses on Cicero's conceptions of state and government, showing that he is the father of constitutionalism, the archetype of the politically conservative mind, and the first to reflect extensively on politics as an activity.

The more laws, the less justice. A room without books is like a body without a soul. Law stands mute in the midst of arms. A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. Let the punishment match the offense. Life is nothing without friendship. An unjust peace is better than a just war Justice consists in doing no injury to men; decency in giving them no offense. While there's life, there's hope.
