Book excerpt: Marco Aurelio Antonino Augusto (apodado "El Sabio") (26 de abril de 1213 – 17 de marzo de 180) nacido en Roma, fue emperador del Imperio romano desde el año 161 hasta el año de su muerte en 180. Marco Aurelio es uno de los filósofos antiguos más apreciados. La obra por la que es más conocido, las Meditaciones, ocupa un lugar especial no solo en nuestra historia intelectual y cultural sino también, para aquellos que lo han leído, como una fuente permanente de orientación ética. Las Meditaciones son una de las más altas manifestaciones de sabiduría práctica que el mundo occidental clásico, o, de hecho, el mundo occidental en general, nos ha dado. Marco Aurelio era un gobernante pragmático y hábil tanto como un pensador especulativo: fue emperador romano durante casi veinte años, logrando en ese tiempo derrotar al Imperio Partio, así como reprimir la revuelta y contener tribus germánicas inquietas. Las Meditaciones son tan convincentes que expresan verdades profundas en un lenguaje simple. A este respecto, Marco Aurelio se encuentra en el polo opuesto de muchos de los "intelectuales" que nos han impuesto hoy. #marco aurelio meditaciones español #meditaciones de marco aurelio #meditaciones marco aurelio en español #marco aurelio libro en español

Book excerpt: “To me, this is the greatest book ever written. . . . It is the definitive text on self-discipline, personal ethics, humility, self-actualization, and strength. . . . If you’re going to read it, you absolutely have to go with the Gregory Hays translation.”—Ryan Holiday, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Obstacle Is the Way “It is unbelievable to see how the emperor’s words have stood the test of time. . . . Read a page or two anytime you feel like the world is too much.”—Arnold Schwarzenegger, The Wall Street Journal Nearly two thousand years after it was written, Meditations remains profoundly relevant for anyone seeking to lead a meaningful life. Your ability to control your thoughts—treat it with respect. It’s all that protects your mind from false perceptions—false to your nature, and that of all rational beings. A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. With bite-size insights and advice on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others, Meditations has become required reading not only for statesmen and philosophers alike, but also for generations of readers who responded to the straightforward intimacy of his style. In Gregory Hays’s translation—the first in nearly four decades—Marcus’s thoughts speak with a new immediacy. In fresh and unencumbered English, Hays vividly conveys the spareness and compression of the original Greek text. Never before have Marcus’s insights been so directly and powerfully presented. With an Introduction that outlines Marcus’s life and career, the essentials of Stoic doctrine, the style and construction of the Meditations, and the work’s ongoing influence, this edition makes it possible to fully rediscover the thoughts of one of the most enlightened and intelligent leaders of any era.

Book excerpt: From the team that brought you The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, a daily devotional of Stoic meditations—an instant Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller.

Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers 366 days of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations from the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the playwright Seneca, or slave-turned-philosopher Epictetus, as well as lesser-known luminaries like Zeno, Cleanthes, and Musonius Rufus. Every day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, and a helpful glossary of Greek terms. By following these teachings over the course of a year (and, indeed, for years to come) you'll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience you need to live well.

Book excerpt: All twelve books by Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius – his personal guidelines to live and rule well. “Do every deed, speak every word, think every thought in the knowledge that you may end your days any moment.” “We have body, soul, and intelligence. To the body belong the senses, to the soul the passions, to the intelligence principles.” “Think not as your insulter judges or wishes you to judge: but see things as they truly are.” “To pursue impossibilities is madness; and it is impossible that the wicked should not act in some such way as this.” “Order not your life as though you had ten thousand years to live. Fate hangs over you. While you live, while yet you may, be good.” Meditations is a collection of twelve books written by Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius. This set of book was originally compiled in the form of private journals. Marcus Aurelius used these notes as personal guides to live by and to better himself as a ruler. He compiled these journals during his time as emperor, and while they were not intended for public consumption, there are valuable lessons to be gleaned from his wisdom. The entries include his views of stoicism—the Hellenistic philosophy devoid of “destructive emotions” that could tamper with logic—and its practical use in ruling and military tactics. Completely unabridged, with a new foreword written by Huffington Post writer Carolyn Gregoire, this publication of Meditations is an all-encompassing collection of Marcus Aurelius’s works.

Remember how long thou hast already put off these things, and how often a certain day and hour as it were, having been set unto thee by the gods, thou hast neglected it. It is high time for thee to understand the true nature both of the world, whereof thou art a part; and of that Lord and Governor of the world, from whom, as a channel from the spring, thou thyself didst flow: and that there is but a certain limit of time appointed unto thee, which if thou shalt not make use of to calm and allay the many distempers of thy soul, it will pass away and thou with it, and never after return. II. Let it be thy earnest and incessant care as a Roman and a man to perform whatsoever it is that thou art about, with true and unfeigned gravity, natural affection, freedom and justice: and as for all other cares, and imaginations, how thou mayest ease thy mind of them. Which thou shalt do; if thou shalt go about every action as thy last action, free from all vanity, all passionate and wilful aberration from reason, and from all hypocrisy, and self-love, and dislike of those things, which by the fates or appointment of God have happened unto thee. Thou seest that those things, which for a man to hold on in a prosperous course, and to live a divine life, are requisite and necessary, are not many, for the gods will require no more of any man, that shall but keep and observe these things. III. Do, soul, do; abuse and contemn thyself; yet a while and the time for thee to respect thyself, will be at an end. Every man's happiness depends from himself, but behold thy life is almost at an end, whiles affording thyself no respect, thou dost make thy happiness to consist in the souls, and conceits of other men. IV. Why should any of these things that happen externally, so much distract thee? Give thyself leisure to learn some good thing, and cease roving and wandering to and fro. Thou must also take heed of another kind of wandering, for they are idle in their actions, who toil and labour in this life, and have no certain scope to which to direct all their motions, and desires. V. For not observing the state of another man's soul, scarce was ever any man known to be unhappy. Tell whosoever they be that intend not, and guide not by reason and discretion the motions of their own souls, they must of necessity be unhappy.

Book excerpt: Judaism makes the bold argument that the very concept of a religion of ‘Judaism’ is an invention of the Christian church. The intellectual journey of world-renowned Talmud scholar Daniel Boyarin, this book will change the study of “Judaism”—an essential key word in Jewish Studies—as we understand it today. Boyarin argues that although the world treats the word “Judaism” as appropriate for naming an alleged religion of the Jews, it is in fact a Christian theological concept only adopted by Jews with the coming of modernity and the adoption of Christian languages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Meditations" was the stoic legacy that Marco Aurelio left us. A masterpiece in which the Roman emperor wrote himself to force himself to be a better citizen, a better emperor and, above all, a better person. In fact, it is with this and not another intention with which you have to read it. He made the mistake of reading this treatise from another perspective, that of thinking that he writes for others. However, as it really struck me was when I read from the point of view that it makes more sense and has more justice to him: that he is actually talking to himself, and that it is his reflections on how to be better. Amazing
