Stoicism is the school. Alice also said he was influenced by Buddhism, for example and I think he mentions Buddhism. And my interests, like I mentioned existentialism my dissertation at university was in Jean-Paul Sartre. In ancient philosophy, the works of Aristotle are becoming more popular again. The Epicurean philosophy, it's the main rival of stoicism. It's kind of becoming more popular, but stoicism has gone through a huge renaissance that massively overshadows these things.
This is the audio of an interview I gave recently for Book Club with Kaiden Kelly, talking about How to Think Like a Roman Emperor, Verissimus, and Stoicism, self-help and modern psychology.
