Meditations (100 Copy Collector's Edition) Hardback

Hardback

Description

Meditations is a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, recording his private notes to himself and ideas on Stoic philosophy. Marcus Aurelius wrote the 12 books of the Meditations as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement. They are a significant source of the modern understanding of ancient Stoic philosophy, and have been praised by fellow writers, philosophers, monarchs, and politicians centuries after his death.

A central theme to Meditations is the importance of analyzing one’s judgment of self and others and the development of a cosmic perspective. He advocates finding one’s place in the universe and sees that everything came from nature, and so everything shall return to it in due time. Another strong theme is of maintaining focus and to be without distraction all the while maintaining strong ethical principles.

This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.
