Stoicism and the Politics of the Roman Empire: A Critical Evaluation

In this lecture, Dr. Taimur Rahman briefly examines 500 years of the development of Stoic philosophy in light of the contradictions within the Roman Empire. The lecture argues that the Stoics ended up aligning with the Senatorial oligarchs against the Roman Popular party. This political alignment has further implications about how we view Stoicism today given the intellectual inheritance of both Christianity and Enlightenment.

The lecture was delivered at the Civil Service Academy in Lahore on 15/2/21.
