De Regno; vel De Regimine Principum
St. Thomas Aquinas
The classic work written by St. Thomas Aquinas to the
king of Cyprus, detailing the nature of kingship and its
purposes. A monumental work, it contains principles
applicable not only to monarchical government, but to all
governments and to political society in general. Extends
not only from the nature of government, especially kingly
government, and its exercise, but even to concerns such as
where and how to found a city; the nature of law; and so
forth. Excellent for students of government as well as
students of the medieval Latin in which it was written; also
excellent for political philosophy. Well worth
the effort of reading; reproduced here in the original
language, Latin. 134 pp., Latin.
