Description: Stoics view both the gods and a supreme God as essential elements. This belief system is clearly expressed by Cicero in a central section of his book The Nature of the Gods. Freeman presents a new translation of this central section which had tremendous influence on religious thinkers for centuries to come.
Review Quotes: "The translation is worthy of praise. It is smooth and colloquial, allowing easy access to rather difficult and technical Latin texts. . . . [Freeman's] approach breathes new life into two Latin texts that deserve more readers."---Ailsa Hunt, Classical Review
