In this work, one of Latin America’s most renowned legal philosophers conducts a comprehensive survey of the ancient Greek understanding of the law, drawing on texts by poets (Hesiod), philosophers (Anaximander), playwrights (Aeschylus and Sophocles), and historians (Herodotus and Thucydides). The book ends with a finely detailed analysis of the relationship between language and reality in Aristotle, and the emergence of the notion of the system and its subsequent introduction into Roman law.
The author’s in-depth study of all these aspects makes this volume an essential reference for philosophers, jurists, and historians.

Martín Laclau has had a long and distinguished career in academia. He has held chairs in legal philosophy at several universities, including Universidad de Buenos Aires and Universidad de El Salvador, where he is an emeritus professor. He has also published eight books and over one hundred articles on different aspects of legal philosophy. Additionally, he served as a justice on the Cámara Federal de la Seguridad Social [Federal Social Security Court of Appeals] for over thirty years.
