The strong influence of Stoicism on Modern ethical, juridical, and political thought is well recognized. Central to Stoic naturalism is the doctrine of oikeiosis, which merges two approaches: one focusing on the natural constitution of living beings, their vital impulses, and fundamental perceptive and cognitive abilities; the other emphasizing the explanation of animal behavior, and subsequently human behavior, in terms of what constitutes "good." This consideration extends beyond mere biological or vital definitions to include a moral perspective for humans. The articles in this volume aim to contribute to the ongoing discourse surrounding the theoretical possibilities presented by the Stoic explanatory model. They highlight its significant productivity, which is evident in the lengthy and intricate process of reception and reinterpretation that culminated in Modernity. By exploring these themes, the collection seeks to deepen our understanding of Stoicism's lasting impact on contemporary thought and its relevance in addressing moral and ethical questions today.
