Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A new translation of Marcus Aurelius's pithy and inspirational philosophical notebooks.Written in Greek by an intellectual Roman emperor without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) 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 such diverse topics as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods and Aurelius's own emotions. But while the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation, in developing his beliefs Marcus also created one of the greatest of all 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. A series of reflections, strongly influenced by Epictetus, which represent a Stoic outlook on life. It offers a range of fascinating spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

AB4 - A paperback book SIGNED by Rick Bass (page 62), Naomi Shihab Nye (page 91), Marion Winik (page 135) on their respective page in very good condition that has some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. Foreword by Leon Hale. Illustrati…ons by Rolf Laub. Contributions by Pete Barthelme, Steven Barthelme, Rick Bass, Michael Berryhill, Martha Boethel, H.R.

Selections of nonfiction columns for State Lines a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, the Sunday supplement to the Houston Chronicle. 8.5"x5.5". 223 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. "There is a universality of humankind," writes one of the authors of the lines within this book. "A little town in South Texas is the same as a little town in John Donne's England. . . ." And so it is that these stories of moments and scenes and events in the state of Texas transcend the state lines and represent a state of mind. Colorful characters and ordinary folk alike fill the small towns and city streets of these fifty-two vignettes, which unfold with humor, poignance, understatement, or stark relief. The elements of real life emerge in the stories of childhood and growing up, of getting old and dying, of walking on ancestral lands and carving names in towering tree trunks, of high-school-prank blocking of traffic in a slower-paced Houston, of bookmobiles, remembered pets, and pecan pie. These superbly crafted pieces, by various authors, represent the best of the nonfiction columns of State Lines, a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, Sunday magazine of the Houston Chronicle. Texas is an underlying element in them all - "not flashy and intrusive," editor Ken Hammond tells us, "but there." Grounded in personal experience, each story goes beyond the commonplace or the obvious, to make a point and offer depth. The provocative lines of Rolf Laub's art add a twist-of-lemon humor that makes this collection a treasure not to be passed up. There. We've described the treasure without once using the word essay. Houston Chronicle columnist Leon Hale's wryly inviting foreword will tell you why we shouldn't have done that. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Laub, Rolf (illustrator). Signed by Author.

Selections of nonfiction columns for State Lines a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, the Sunday supplement to the Houston Chronicle. 8.5"x5.5". 223 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. "There is a universality of humankind," writes one of the authors of the lines within this book. "A little town in South Texas is the same as a little town in John Donne's England. . . ." And so it is that these stories of moments and scenes and events in the state of Texas transcend the state lines and represent a state of mind. Colorful characters and ordinary folk alike fill the small towns and city streets of these fifty-two vignettes, which unfold with humor, poignance, understatement, or stark relief. The elements of real life emerge in the stories of childhood and growing up, of getting old and dying, of walking on ancestral lands and carving names in towering tree trunks, of high-school-prank blocking of traffic in a slower-paced Houston, of bookmobiles, remembered pets, and pecan pie. These superbly crafted pieces, by various authors, represent the best of the nonfiction columns of State Lines, a weekly feature of Texas Magazine, Sunday magazine of the Houston Chronicle. Texas is an underlying element in them all - "not flashy and intrusive," editor Ken Hammond tells us, "but there." Grounded in personal experience, each story goes beyond the commonplace or the obvious, to make a point and offer depth. The provocative lines of Rolf Laub's art add a twist-of-lemon humor that makes this collection a treasure not to be passed up. There. We've described the treasure without once using the word essay. Houston Chronicle columnist Leon Hale's wryly inviting foreword will tell you why we shouldn't have done that. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Laub, Rolf (illustrator). Signed by Author.
