Thank you for checking out this book by Theophania Publishing. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you soon. We have thousands of titles available, and we invite you to search for us by name, contact us via our website, or download our most recent catalogues. The things in our control are by nature free, unrestrained, unhindered; but those not in our control are weak, slavish, restrained, belonging to others. Remember, then, that if you suppose that things which are slavish by nature are also free, and that what belongs to others is your own, then you will be hindered. You will lament, you will be disturbed, and you will find fault both with gods and men. But if you suppose that only to be your own which is your own, and what belongs to others such as it really is, then no one will ever compel you or restrain you. Further, you will find fault with no one or accuse no one. You will do nothing against your will. No one will hurt you, you will have no enemies, and you not be harmed.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
The Enchiridion (‘handbook’) of Epictetus is one of the most well-known and best-loved works of ancient Greek literature. Based on the solid theoretical foundation of Stoic thought, this is indeed a highly accessible handbook giving practical advice on how to live a better life. It is as relevant now as ever it was. This pocket-size edition of the classic work is presented in a lucid, jargon-free new translation, with a thought-provoking introduction by contemporary philosopher Matthew Talbert. Typeset with Boatwhistle’s customary panache, this edition is as elegant as it is engrossing.

Notă biografică

Epictetus (c. 50–c. 135 AD) was a prominent Greek philosopher whose teachings became a cornerstone of Roman Stoicism. Born into slavery in Hierapolis (modern-day Turkey), he spent his youth in Rome as a slave to a wealthy administrative secretary of Nero. After gaining his freedom following Nero’s death, Epictetus began teaching philosophy in Rome until the Emperor Domitian banished all philosophers from Italy around 89 AD. He relocated to Nicopolis, Greece, where he established a highly influential philosophical school that attracted students from across the Roman Empire. Epictetus wrote nothing down himself; his profound insights on freedom, personal autonomy, and emotional resilience were meticulously recorded and preserved by his devoted student, Arrian.
