Discourses of Epictetus is a record of different conversations that transpired between him and his pupil. These are aimed at explaining the author’s philosophy about how to live a serene life. Discussing a wide range of topics from steadfastness to weaknesses from fear to poverty and from happiness to the lack of it this is a thought-provoking work. Captivating!
The Discourses argue that happiness lies in learning to perceive exactly what is in our power to change and what is not and embrace our fate to live in harmony with god and nature. In this personal, practical guide to Stoicism's ethics and moral self-improvement, Epictetus tackles questions of freedom and imprisonment, illness and fear, family, friendship, and love.
