In the notes that follow, we will focus on philosophical thought as political philosophy. Aristotle, the Greek philosopher who published and commented on the Constitutions of the ancient Greek cities, begins his work {Politics} with the thesis that {man is a political animal}\footnote{cite[alternative=entry][ancient philosophy::Aristotle2008]}.
 
Cicéron, ce grand homme politique et cet écrivain savant, a eu la formule bien connue, selon laquelle \quotation{Socrate fit descendre la philosophie du ciel sur la terre.}\footnote{\cite[alternative=entry][philosophie ancienne::cicero-tuscu2011]}, qui désigne la question fondamentale de l’intérêt nourri par la philosophie pour les {\it choses humaines}.
Cicero, the great politician and scholarly writer, had the well-known phrase, \quotation{Socrates brought philosophy down from heaven to earth.}\footnote{\cite[alternative=entry][philosophie ancienne::cicero-tuscu2011]}, which refers to the fundamental question of philosophy's interest in {\it human things}.
