    The Fourfold Remedy
    What do we really need in order to live a happy life? An Epicurean antidote to anxietyOver two thousand years ago the Greek philosopher Epicurus offered a seemingly simple answer: all we really want is pleasure. Today we tend to associate the word 'Epicurean' with the enjoyment of fine food and wine and decadent self-indulgence. But, as philosopher John Sellars shows, these things are a world away from the vision of a pleasant life developed by Epicurus and his followers who were more concerned with mental pleasures and avoiding pain. Their goal, in short, was a life of tranquillity. In this uplifting and elegant book, Sellars walks us through the history of Epicureanism from a private garden on the edge of ancient Athens to the streets of Rome, showing us how it can help us think anew about joy, friendship, nature and being alive in the world.

    The Satires , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 199min
    Quintus Horatius Flaccus was born on December 8, 65 BC in the southeastern region of Hellenized Italy. He died on November 27, 8 BC. Horace was the son of a freedman of modest means. In the civil war between Antony and Octavian, he threw in his lot with Antony and fled along with the rest upon their defeat at Phillipi in 42 BC. His subsequent discovery by Maecenas and eventual rehabilitation with the Augustan regime was one of history's most fortunate reconciliations. Horace developed a number of interrelated themes throughout his career, including politics, love, philosophy, ethics, his own social role, and poetry itself. The Satires are forms of "blame poetry", and both have a natural affinity with the moralizing diatribes of Cynicism. The Satires include a strong element of Epicureanism, with frequent allusions to the Epicurean poet Lucretius. The Satires also feature some elements of Stoic, Peripatetic, and Platonic dialogues. In short, The Satires present a medley of philosophical programs, dished up in no particular order...a style of argument typical of the genre. This translation is by Christopher Smart. ungekürzt.

    On Moral Ends , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 B.C.-43 B.C.) is one of the seminal figures in the history of Western philosophy, politics, and letters. On Moral Ends (De Finibus) is considered by many to be his most important work in philosophy. In a series of stimulating dialogues, Cicero seeks to answer the question "What is humanity's Ultimate Good?" by examining the ethical systems of three different schools of thought. In so doing, he reveals powerful and startling truths about wisdom, virtue, and our deepest desires.This modern, original translation of Cicero's elegant Latin text makes On Moral Ends accessible to a new generation. Clear, lucid, and faithful to Cicero's majestic style, this volume enables the motivated student or self-learner to grasp the main tenets of Epicureanism, Stoicism, and the philosophy of the later Platonic Academy like never before. At long last, here is a translation that is accessible to all, just as Cicero originally intended his work to be.Quintus Curtius is the pen name of attorney and translator George J. Thomas. He has previously translated Cicero's On Duties and Stoic Paradoxes, as well as Sallust's Conspiracy of Catiline and War of Jugurtha. He resides in Kansas City and can be found at www.qcurtius.com. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Saethon Williams.
