Summary, etc. | "Epictetus, a Greek Stoic and Treed slave, ran a thriving philosophy achool in Nicopolis in the early second century AD. His animated discussions were celebrated for their rhetorical wizadry and were written down by Arrian, his most famous pupil. The Discourses argue that happiness lies in learning to percieve exactly what is in our power to change and what is not, and in embracing our fate to live in harmony with god and nature. In this personal, practical guide to theethics of Stoicism and moral self-improvement, Epictetus tackles questions of freedom and imprisonment, illness and fear, family , friendship and love." |
