    Written sometime between 120-180 AD by Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, Meditations has had a lasting literary power for centuries. Aurelius explores his personal exploration through Stoicism and how it impacted his time as a warrior and eventual emperor of the Roman Empire. Though his tenure was riddled with challenge, Aurelius found solace in his practice of stoic philosophy. Meditations serve as the personal account of his reflections, philosophy, and commitment to personal and professional contentment. Stoicism, in practice around Three AD, is traced back to ancient Greece at its founding by Zeno of Citium, and teaches that moral virtue is the highest "good" developed by knowledge. Relying on his understanding of stoicism, Aurelius was able to detach himself from worldly trouble and challenge and instead find inner peace in reason. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Seneca's Letters from a Stoic is considered one of the thought-leaders of philosophy in the history of classical literature. The compilation offers a comprehensive introduction to the stoic philosophy. Stoicism is Hellenistic philosophy that dominated literature and conversation until around Three AD. Its roots are traced back to ancient Greece at its founding by Zeno of Citium. The practice teaches that moral virtue is the highest "good" and it is developed by knowledge. The "best" members of society are wise because they live in absolute harmony with Reason that governs the natural world and they are immune to "worldly" desires such as greed, pleasure, and pain. Seneca uses these principals to offer his own advice for living one's best life. The Letters serve as a guide for maximizing the "good" and disregarding the "bad". A must-listen for any classical enthusiasts! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Austin Vanfleet. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/109317/bk_acx0_109317_sample.mp3.

    Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens in the early third century BC. It was heavily influenced by certain teachings of Socrates. Stoicism is predominantly a philosophy of personal ethics informed by its system of logic and its views on the natural world. According to its teachings, as social beings, the path to happiness for humans is found in accepting the moment as it presents itself, by not allowing oneself to be controlled by the desire for pleasure or fear of pain, by using one’s mind to understand the world and to do one’s part in nature's plan, and by working together and treating others fairly and justly.  This audiobook contains biographies on five prominent Stoics: Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Cato, and Zeno. Get an inside look at the lives of the men who made Stoicism famous. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Liam Taylor.

    The word "stoic" is derived from the term stoicism. Today, these words mean indifference to all feelings regardless of whether it is excruciating hate or awkward love. But the philosophy of stoicism is entirely different and encompasses a very different set of ideas.Although, over time, the philosophy of stoicism evolved particularly when the Greek philosopher in Athens, whose name was Zeno of Citium, came from Rome, Seneca (the younger) and Marcus Aurelius (the stoic emperor of Rome) were maybe more prominent stoic philosophers.The basic teachings of stoicism are that bad emotions arise out of bad judgment and that the essence of stoicism is to suppress these negative emotions. We always claim that virtue produces true happiness. Stoics described philosophy as a way of life that can make you wise.A wise man is someone who is ethically and mentally fine. Many philosophers (including Seneca) emphasized the conviction that virtue is good. A wise man would be free from unhappiness because unhappiness produces unhappiness, and by virtue, there is no unhappiness. This gives a strong sense of managing one's own destiny.  ungekürzt.

    Stoicism is one philosophy that is not just theoretical in nature. It is something that you learn to adopt into your everyday life; its ancient wisdom is more relevant than ever today. Dating back to around 300 BC in Athens, Stoicism was initially developed by Zeno of Citium. The essence of the philosophy is one of using grit and self-control as ways of overcoming destructive emotions. Despite the modern perception of the word Stoic, this does not mean to eliminate all kinds of feelings from your life. The goal, rather, is to transform your emotions. Stretching from the Hellenistic period to the 21st century, Stoicism has not lost its practicality in dealing with the problems of life, incorporating logic, self-dialogue, and meditation designed to keep your attention fixed on the present moment. It ensures a firm and consistent way of life that focuses on the choices you make so that failure ultimately leads to more success. For anyone new to the Stoic philosophy, let this book guide you through everything you need to know in one easily accessible yet comprehensive introduction, from its origin and history to the core beliefs and principles. Most importantly, Stoicism: A Beginner's Guide to the Ancient Art, History, and Wisdom of the Stoic Philosophy focuses on why Stoicism is relevant to your life today. ungekürzt. Language: English.
