Outline (in English)

The purpose of these lectures is to discuss some aspects of the history of political philosophy from the ancient Greece to the Renaissance Italy. The origin of philosophical meditation on “the order of the human things” is the life of Socrates. The classical political philosophy formed by his successors seemed to be subverted through the collapse of the ancient world and the triumph of the Biblical religion. However, with the opening of Renaissance age, the heritages of the classical antiquity, which were preserved in the Islamic world, revived the great tradition of political philosophy in the Western world. It was the revival of ancient civilization that marked the beginning of the modern West. The philosophical tradition, that hugely changed its orientation as a result of mediation of Biblical religion, organized the axioms of modern politics (liberal democracy). The historical process of the reformation and mutation could raise one of the most urgent and crucial problems which must be reflected by the students of social science in our time.
