This is Quintus Curtius's second book. In it, he continues his explorations in history, biography, and philosophy to extract inspiring, timeless lessons for modern readers. The pervasive themes include courage in adversity, character and fate, moral problems, and the transcendent search for life's lessons. Special attention is given to Stoicism, Platonism, and the quest for meaning in a turbulent world. Challenging, meticulously researched, and bursting with wisdom, "Pantheon" is a book unlike any other in the modern literary scene.
