De Legibus Libri Tres (Three Books on the Laws) is a philosophical dialogue by Marcus Tullius Cicero, exploring his theories on natural law and its implications for governance and society. Written in the form of a conversation, the work delves into fundamental questions about justice, morality, and the ideal state. Cicero draws upon his extensive knowledge of Roman law and his deep understanding of Greek philosophy to articulate a vision of law rooted in reason and nature.
This edition presents the original text with scholarly apparatus, providing valuable insights into Cicero's thought and the historical context in which he wrote. It remains a foundational text for students of law, political science, and philosophy, offering enduring reflections on the principles of justice and the nature of law.
