Beskrivelse

A collection featuring The Discourses, Fragments, and Enchiridion by Epictetus, a Greek Stoic philosopher. His teachings focus on understanding what we can control and accepting what we cannot.

Epictetus offers a practical guide to Stoic ethics and personal growth through his engaging philosophical discussions.

Epictetus, once a freed slave, led a successful philosophy school in Nicopolis during the early second century AD. Known for his lively and skillful debates, his ideas were recorded by Arrian, his most renowned student. The Discourses emphasize that true happiness comes from recognizing the limits of our power and embracing our destiny in harmony with both god and nature.

This accessible and personal manual addresses themes such as freedom versus imprisonment, coping with illness and fear, and navigating relationships with family, friends, and love. The text has been translated and edited with an insightful introduction by Robert Dobbin, making these ancient teachings relevant and practical for modern readers.
