− | Various philosophical schools were active in the historical Roman world. Chief among these were the [[Stoic]]s and the [[Epicurean]]s, although various other schools existed as well. Roman [[philosophy]] provides what the [[DE:Religio Romana]] does not (nor does it try to); a coherent moral code for personal behavior. Thus, while many citizens of Nova Roma are practitioners of the Religio Romana, the choice of personal philosophy allows the expression of one's personal moral and cosmological inclinations within the larger framework of Roman society and religion. This separation of personal philosophy and religion is one of the healthiest aspects of the Religio Romana, and one of the reasons it is so uniquely suited for modern times. | + | Various philosophical schools were active in the historical Roman world.

"Via Romana" in Nova Roma, means the general study and practice of Roman culture. As with all aspects of Nova Roma, the extent to which any given citizen indulges in this area is up to his or her own inclination; but it is certainly encouraged. This includes the learning and use of the Latin language, the study and reenactment of Roman arts (including historical military reenactments), the production of Roman drama, the study of Roman history, and a wide variety of other pursuits. It is as part of the Via Romana that citizens are expected to take up DE:Roman names for use within our society.
