ntrol, and Calmness in all situations with the study of Stoicism
STOIC GUIDANCE provides an introduction to the subject of Stoic Philosophy and the practice of Stoicism as a foundation for moral living based on the four virtues: wisdom, courage, temperance, and justice. Originating in the Classical Antiquity of the Greco-Roman world in the 3rd century BC, Stoicism was studied and practiced for over five centuries providing a basis for ethical living in often challenging and brutal pagan times.
Understand the Stoic way of thinking and living, directly from the teaching and wisdom of its greatest philosophers. Who were the Stoics? what was their message? how did they navigate the challenges and difficulties of life in their time? what was their influence and impact then? and what legacy did they leave?
Stoic Guidance provides a compellingly readable reference for Stoicism, balancing: short biographies of its most prominent philosophers; their teachings in quotes and anecdotes; and a concise guide to the adoption and practice of Stoicism in the modern day. It is a publication which will not just be read, but continually reached for on the bookshelf, to remind of the words and thoughts of the ancient and wise.
Take a first step on the Stoic journey and find your way to ‘eudaimonia’, the happiness of a life lived well in accordance with nature.
