Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Golden Sayings of Epictetus Epictetus - How then do men act?"The Golden Sayings of Epictetus is one of three key texts, along with the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius and Seneca's Letters From A Stoic, from which we know the philosophy of Stoicism.Epictetus (ca. 50-ca. 130 AD) primarily taught about the philosophy of happiness and virtue. To Epictetus, external happenings were determined by fate, and were therefore beyond human control. He believed that people could accept whatever happened to them in a calm and unemotional manner if they recognized that certain things were not under their control. Even though fate played a role in events, Epictetus still believed that individuals were responsible for their own actions.Although he was born into slavery and endured a permanent physical disability, Epictetus maintained that all people are free to control their lives and to live in harmony with nature. We will always be happy, he argued, if we learn to desire that things should be exactly as they are.

Download or read book Epictetus 263 Selected Quotes written by Massimo Pigliucci and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I began to practice Stoicism in 2014, and my first encounter with the philosophy was through the reading of Epictetus. It simply blew my mind. Or rather, the way Epictetus comes across through the writings of his student Arrian of Nicomedia, blew my mind, since Epictetus himself never wrote anything. And moreover, we have apparently lost half of Arrian's Discourses, having been left with only four of the original eight volumes.Epictetus was born a slave in Hierapolis (modern day Pamukkale, western Turkey) in the year 55 CE, and died in Nicopolis (western Greece) in 135 CE, having become the most famous teacher of practical philosophy of his time. His influence has reverberated through the millennia, as his Enchiridion (the Manual) was used as a training handbook of spiritual exercises by Christian monks during the middle ages, and has he influenced Renaissance scholars and philosophers, as well as generals and statesmen (including both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson).Epictetus is blunt, his presentation of philosophy accompanied by a sharp sense of humor that borders on sarcasm (and sometimes clearly and willfully crosses that border!). He speaks frankly to his students, and to us, telling us all that if we don't practice what we learn we are just wasting our time -- and his. And remember, this is the only time allotted to us by the cosmic web of cause-effect that the ancient Stoics called "god."This booklet is not a commentary, but simply a selection of what I personally find to be Epictetus' most powerful quotes, each sourced so that the interested reader can trace it back to its broader context. Use this booklet as a continuous source of inspiration, as life in the 21st century isn't that different, in many respects, from that of 1st century Rome. Enjoy and reflect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epictetus was a Greek philosopher who lived in the first century AD and taught a philosophy known as Stoicism. The Golden Sayings is a collection of his most memorable and insightful teachings, presented as aphorisms or short maxims. In these sayings, Epictetus expounds on the virtues of self-mastery, inner peace, and detachment from material goods. Although he lived two thousand years ago, his wisdom remains relevant today, and his influence can be felt in the works of later philosophers like Marcus Aurelius and Michel de Montaigne.

This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selections from the writings of the Greek Stoic philosopher Epictetus, compiled and translated by Hastings Crossley. Epictetus (AD 55-AD 135) was a Greek Stoic philosopher. He was probably born a slave at Hierapolis, Phrygia (present day Pamukkale, Turkey), and lived in Rome until his exile to Nicopolis in northwestern Greece, where he lived most of his life and died. His teachings were noted down and published by his pupil Arrian in his Discourses. Philosophy, he taught, is a way of life and not just a theoretical discipline. To Epictetus, all external events are determined by fate, and are thus beyond our control, but we can accept whatever happens calmly and dispassionately. Individuals, however, are responsible for their own actions which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline. Suffering arises from trying to control what is uncontrollable, or from neglecting what is within our power. As part of the universal city that is the universe, human beings have a duty of care to all fellow humans. The person who followed these precepts would achieve happiness.
