Penguin Classics Meditations By Marcus Aurelius

What if one of the most powerful men in history left behind a private guide to staying calm, disciplined and wise? Meditations is exactly that. Written as a personal notebook by the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, it has guided leaders, thinkers and everyday readers for almost two thousand years. Its short, honest reflections will help you handle stress, difficult people and life’s uncertainties with a clear mind.

Marcus Aurelius (121 to 180 AD) was Emperor of Rome and one of the most respected Stoic philosophers. He wrote Meditations in Greek for his own reflection, never intending it to be published, while leading Rome through war and hardship. This Penguin Classics edition features the translation and notes of Martin Hammond and an introduction by Diskin Clay.
