Synopsis

Nearly two thousand years ago, the most powerful man in the world kept a private journal he never meant to publish. Meditations is that journal — Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius writing to himself on how to live with clarity, discipline, and calm amid chaos. Practical, unsparing, and timeless, it remains the essential handbook of Stoic philosophy. This unabridged recording uses the classic George Long translation. This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

About Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius (April 121–March 180) was Roman emperor from 161 until his death. He ruled with Lucius Verus as co-emperor from 161 until Lucius's death in 169. Marcus was the last of the "Five Good Emperors" and is also considered one of the most important Stoic philosophers. His tenure was marked by wars in Asia against a revitalized Parthian Empire and with Germanic tribes along the Limes Germanicus into Gaul and across the Danube. A revolt in the East, led by Avidius Cassius, who previously fought under Lucius Verus against the Parthians, failed.

Marcus's work Meditations, written in Greek while on campaign between 170 and 180, is still revered as a literary monument to a government of service and duty.
