This is a collective study, in nine new essays, of the close connection between        theology and cosmology in Stoic philosophy. The Stoic god is best described as the        single active physical principle that governs the whole cosmos. The first part of        the book covers three essential topics in Stoic theology: the active and demiurgical        character of god, his corporeal nature and irreducibility to matter, and fate as the        network of causes through which god acts upon the cosmos. The secondpart turns to        Stoic cosmology, and how it relates to other cosmologies of the time. The third part        examines the ethical and religious consequences of the Stoic theories of god and        cosmos.
