Abstract

Le stoïcisme est une philosophie née de la pratique et faite pour être appliquée. Toutes les doctrines antiques, si elles s’articulent à une manière de vivre, ne le font pas de manière aussi immédiate et rigoureuse. Cette étude s’emploie à le montrer en exhumant la théorie de la pratique implicite du stoïcisme, c’est-à-dire son analyse des conditions, des paramètres, des normes et des possibilités de transformation de nos activités. Pour ce faire, on suit le fil directeur d’un petit mot banal, « l’usage » (khrésis, usus) dans les textes et fragments stoïciens. Grâce à lui, on examine les divergences pratiques entre les stoïciens et Socrate, Platon, Aristote ou Épicure, et on parcourt l’ensemble du système stoïcien, de la théologie à la morale appliquée, en passant par la cosmologie, la zoologie, la psychologie, la logique, la pédagogie et tous les aspects de l’éthique. Nos organes et nos facultés, les bienfaits de la Nature, la raison et l’argumentation, les vertus, ainsi que les circonstances, moyens et buts de nos conduites s’avèrent en effet tous et toujours susceptibles d’un ou plusieurs usages, que la philosophie cherche à répertorier et à organiser. Synthèse pratique de notre passivité par rapport à la providence et de notre activité par rapport au monde, l’usage est ainsi pour les stoïciens le site instable où se joue l’ajustement de l’homme à sa nature et à la Nature.

Abstract

Roman Stoic thinkers in the imperial period adapted Greek doctrine to create a model of the self that served to connect philosophical ideals with traditional societal values. The Roman Stoics-the most prominent being Marcus Aurelius-engaged in rigorous self-examination that enabled them to integrate philosophy into the practice of living. Gretchen Reydams-Schils's innovative new book shows how these Romans applied their distinct brand of social ethics to everyday relations and responsibilities. 'The Roman Stoics' reexamines the philosophical basis that instructed social practice in friendship, marriage, parenting, and community. From this analysis emerge Stoics who were neither cold nor detached, as the stereotype has it, but all too aware of their human weaknesses. In a valuable contribution to current discussions in the humanities on identity, autonomy, and altruism, Reydams-Schils ultimately conveys the wisdom of Stoics to the citizens of modern society.

Abstract

Until recently, Hugo Grotius has been conspicuously absent in studies of the revival of Stoic philosophy in the 16th and 17th centuries. Dominant models of Neo-stoicism have emphasised the aesthetic and literary innovations, or the bureaucratic applications of the works of Seneca and Tacitus. The moral, legal and political forms of Stoicism in the formative years of the Westphalian System have still to be acknowledged, as goes for the presence of Stoicism in its most innovative intellectual representative: Hugo Grotius (1583-1645). Hugo Grotius’s lasting contribution comes under three headings. He gave the laws of nature a sure footing in the new international order. He pleaded for the uncovering of universal concepts of common human understanding, which formed the basis for his ecumenical endeavours. Thirdly, Grotius was aware of the limited powers of man, given the determination and order of the world. Together, these three intellectual stances are definitely Stoic, and they illustrate the importance of Stoic philosophy in the early Dutch republic. Grotius, nonetheless, is not a Stoic philosopher, if only because he eschewed ‘isms’, and portrayed himself as an eclectic, bringing together the common wisdom of mankind, that on which the schools of philosophy agree, rather than allying himself dogmatically. Within this eclecticism, however, Stoicisms loom large. This book is about these Stoicisms within Grotius’ thought. It is written by specialists on Grotius’ thought and on intellectual and legal history and political thought of the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. The volume traces the development of Neo-stoicism through Justus Lipsius and its further fate in the writings of Grotius, his contemporaries and his followers.
