Description: In the context of the question of Cicero's knowledge of the Peripatos, I want to compare - not as a philologist or philosopher, but as an ancient historian interested in problems of law, ethics and philosophy as a whole - Aristotle's and Cicero's statements on law, in particular on the "right by nature", on the physei dikaion, the physikon dikaion and the ius naturae. Such a comparison is actually obvious for various reasons, and it is even suggested by Cicero himself (Leg. I 36).; but, as far as I can see, it has not yet been systematically tackled. In any case, this is a huge topic, and so what I am presenting here is no more than an attempt, concentrated on a few aspects, to explore the possibilities of comparison and their problems on the basis of selected texts.
