Epictetus' Discourses

null

Book •

Epictetus' Discourses, compiled by his student Arrian, represent a cornerstone of Stoic philosophy.

These teachings emphasize inner freedom, focusing on what we can control—our thoughts and actions—rather than external events.

Epictetus's practical approach to living a virtuous life resonates with readers seeking guidance on managing emotions and navigating life's challenges.

His emphasis on self-awareness and acceptance of what is beyond our control offers a path to inner peace and resilience.

The Discourses remain a valuable resource for understanding and applying Stoic principles in daily life.
