This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher and statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero's work, On The Nature Of The Gods, which critically examines Epicurean, Stoic, and Skeptic perspectives on matters of theology and cosmology Specifically it examines the very first parts of the work in book 1, where Cicero discusses his own motivations for writing this work, and the larger project he has in mind with his philosophical works more generally. Being sidelined in the new post-Republic political regime, and dealing with grief over the death of his daughter Tullia leads him to take on a significant project of writing about Greek philosophy in Latin, and using a dialogue form which is well-suited to presenting and criticizing positions in all sorts of areas of philosophy.
