Cicero On Duties Book 1 - Committing Injustice Through Inaction - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher and statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero's work, On Duties (De Officiis), which presents a largely Stoic view on ethics, virtues, relationships, and duties or moral obligations Specifically it examines whether a person can commit injustice through failing to act. Cicero's answer is that this is indeed possible, and he discusses several motives for this, including the seemingly positive one of being exclusively concerned with philosophy.
