Description
A clear and eloquent leading translation of the Roman emperor's reflections on human life and death, Marcus Aurelius' Meditations offers timeless Stoic philosophy that inspires countless others, including The Daily Stoic author Ryan Holiday, to use philosophy as a tool for self-improvement and resilience to live a better life.
Written in Greek by an intellectual Roman emperor without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a wide range of fascinating spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Spanning from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation, they cover diverse topics such as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods, and the values of leadership. While the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation, in developing his beliefs, Marcus also created one of the greatest works of philosophy: a series of wise and practical aphorisms that have been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers, and ordinary readers for almost two thousand years.
To provide a full understanding of Aurelius's seminal work, this edition includes explanatory notes, a general index, an index of quotations, an index of names, and an introduction by Diskin Clay, putting the work in its biographical, historical, and literary context, as well as a chronology of Marcus Aurelius's life and career.
