The focal point of this inquiry is the notion of 'barbarism' in the New Science. While Vico's influential conception of the 'barbarism of reflection' has attracted a lot of attention, the multiplicity of tropes of barbarism in the New Science has not been sufficiently recognized. The article argues that while Vico takes civil law, the Roman ius gentium, as a model for his conception of culture, the trope of the warring barbarian figures prominently in key moments of his philosophy of history (e. g. in transitional moments between two historical ages) when issues of modern international law (asylum, declaration of war, piracy) are at stake.
