Cicero's De Legibus (On the Laws), written around 51 BC as a companion to On the Republic, is a dialogue on the foundations of law and justice. Cicero argues that true law is not human invention but something rooted in nature and reason, binding on all peoples in all times. A cornerstone of the natural-law tradition that runs from Aquinas to the modern idea of human rights, it is presented here in its original Latin. Ideal for readers of legal philosophy, natural law, and Roman thought.
