9781953058317: Meditations

Synopsis

Based on Original Translations by George Long and G. H. Rendall

Marcus Aurelius, one of the last great emperors of Rome, was one of the strongest proponents of the philosophy of stoicism. He wrote these notebooks for himself -- to help stay on the right course toward living a moral, useful, and rewarding life. These meditations have inspired people for centuries, helping readers deal with anxiety, temptation, lack of discipline, adversity, and the fear of change and death. This new edition features a thematic index, blank pages for readers' own meditations and insights, and an innovative numbering system to make lessons easier to track and reference when they are needed.
