About the Author
Epictetus (circa 55-135 ce) taught in Rome until the year 94 ce, when Emperor Domitian banished philosophers from the city. In exile, he established a school of philosophy where his distinguished students included Marcus Aurelius, author of "Meditations". Some 1,863 years after Epictetus's death, Tom Wolfe revived his philosophy in the bestselling novel "A Man in Full".

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and teachings of Epictetus, a renowned Stoic philosopher who lived during the Roman Empire. The author delves into Epictetus's personal story, tracing his journey from slavery to becoming a respected teacher. We learn about his humble beginnings, his time as a slave, and his eventual emancipation. The author also discusses Epictetus's philosophy, highlighting its emphasis on self-control, virtue, and resilience in the face of adversity. Epictetus's Stoicism is presented in contrast to other schools of thought, particularly Epicureanism and Skepticism, which the author explores in detail. Through Epictetus's teachings, the book unpacks the Stoic ideals of living in accordance with nature, accepting what is beyond our control, and focusing on what we can influence. The author also analyzes Epictetus's views on social hierarchies, wealth, and friendship, revealing a philosophy that emphasizes inner peace and self-sufficiency over external factors. The book offers a valuable glimpse into the world of Stoicism and its relevance in ancient Rome, highlighting Epictetus's unique contributions to this influential philosophy. It is a fascinating exploration of a timeless philosophy that continues to resonate with readers today. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
