Justus Lipsius
Justus Lipsius (18 October 1547 – 23 March 1606) was a Southern-Netherlandish (Belgian) philologist and humanist.
His ideas about the ideal citizen—a man that acts according to reason, is answerable to himself, is in control of his emotions, and is ready to fight—found wide acceptance in the turbulent times of the Reformation.
