Meditations: A New Translation

One of the greatest literary works of all time - the closest thing we have to a manual for life. 

Nearly two thousand years after it was written, Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus’ insights and advice—on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others—have made Meditations required reading for anyone seeking to lead a meaningful life.

In fresh and unencumbered English, Translator Gregory Hays vividly conveys the spareness and compression of the original Greek text. Never before have Marcus’s insights been so directly and powerfully presented.

My So Called Mind’s most recommended book.
