Donald Robertson reads from one of his favourite articles, Death Love Stoicism. In many ways though death is already present with us throughout life. We are always inescapably conscious at some level of the utter fragility of our existence. No matter how much we try to ignore it, we know each moment of our lives that our life could suddenly stop.
This is a new audio recording of an article I published on Medium about the Stoic contemplation of death. The photo shows me outside the ruined Temple of Hades at the ancient site of Eleusis near Athens.
