Lipsius, Justus (1547-1606) Politicorum Libri Sex . Strasbourg: Berneggerianis, 1641. 12mo, contemporary parchment. Politicorum is a sequel to De Constantia . In it, Lipsius argues for the primacy of following reason, both in personal moral actions, and in the actions of government. Because a ruler "desires to subject all things to himself, he should first subject himself to reason."
