Synopsis

This book contains a number of commentaries on the life and philosophy of the Roman emperor, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, who reigned from 161 to 180 CE and was the last of the Five Good Emperors. These commentaries provide deep insights into Marcus's personal struggles with the challenges of life and mortality, as well as revealing the private thoughts of one of the most powerful men in the ancient world. The book offers a collection of his meditations on stoicism, love, fear, and forgiveness, which form one of the essential literary works of the ancient Roman world.
