Full Description
One of the great works of ancient philosophy, "Meditations" is particularly interesting as these writings were penned as private thoughts and not intended for public view. The stoic code, by which the great Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius lived, is here fully articulated through precious fragments of ideas, interspersed with more developed passages. These fascinating personal writings reveal the journey of self-improvement that Marcus Aurelius embarked upon, and the integral role that stoic philosophy played in steeling him for the trials of ruling an empire and mounting military campaigns. This is a truly inspiring and thought-provoking work of philosophy.
