Epictetus
Über den Autor
Epictetus was a prominent Stoic philosopher whose teachings have significantly influenced Western thought. Born into slavery, he gained his freedom and dedicated his life to the study and dissemination of Stoic philosophy. He emphasized the importance of personal ethics, the pursuit of virtue, and the idea that individuals can achieve tranquility through self-control and rational thinking. His most famous work, the 'Enchiridion,' serves as a practical guide to living a good life according to Stoic principles.
