'However one defines Man, the same definition applies to us all. This is sufficient proof that there is no essential difference within mankind.' (Laws l.29-30) Cicero's The Republic is an impassioned plea for responsible governement written just before the civil war that ended the Roman Republic in a dialogue following Plato. Drawing on Greek political theory, the work embodies the mature reflections of a Roman ex-consul on the nature of political organization, on justice in society, and on the qualities needed in a statesman. Its sequel, The Laws, expounds the influential doctrine of Natural Law, which applies to all mankind, and sets out an ideal code for a reformed Roman Republic, already half in the realm of utopia. This is the first complete English translation of both works for over sixty years and features a lucid Introduction, a Table of Dates, notes on the Roman constitution, and an Index of Names.

譯作與譯者,倒是很般配。作者中文水平,不如大多數初中生。翻譯之劣,近世少見。商務印書館列這本書為漢譯經典,實在匪夷可思。所謂漢譯經典,是指原文經典,還是譯作經典?如果作為劣譯經典,本書倒是極有可能獲此殊榮。 蘇力近年來好像不糟蹋原著,他就活不下去。他要把羅...
評分“人民隻有當構成人民的各個個體,由一種正義的閤夥關係而匯聚起來時纔存在。” 西塞羅對正義的理解和重視讓人有種震顫的感覺,覺得一個不正義的國傢便不能稱為一個真正的國傢,一個不正義的政府也不能稱為一個真正的政府,一個不正義的民族也不能稱為真正的民族。而正義,究竟...
評分西塞羅模仿柏拉圖,以一個神聖的節日場閤作為開頭,以西庇阿之夢作為結束。從對話體裁到人物安排(西庇阿相當於蘇格拉底,鮑魯斯之孫圖貝羅類似於格勞孔)再到討論主題(政體、正義)都讓人聯想到瞭柏拉圖。但如沃格林所說:“相似之處也隻有這些,錶麵的關聯所具有的象形性特...

評分當他許多年後依然抱著他在喀提林陰謀時期做的那點事情喋喋不休時,甚至會覺得他有些可憐。所以如果想知道人在試圖自我贊美時能顯得有多滑稽,請參考西塞羅《國傢篇》第一捲捲首語與《法律篇》中他兩個兄弟對他的贊美。
