Introduction to Stoicism: Part III
An excellent training about Humanities
Marcus Aurelius, Philosopher-King
In this course, we take a look at the life and thought of the fascinating Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius. Admired for centuries for his rare combination of great power and virtue, Marcus is often thought to be the figure who came closest to realizing Platos ideal of the philosopher-king. Inspired by Pierre Hadots idea of the Meditations as “spiritual exercises”, we will explore the key ideas of the Marcus Aurelius for attaining the Stoic goals of moral goodness and tranquillity in the midst of shifting and uncertain fortune. We also include a “bonus lecture” on the 16th century Flemish Neo-Stoic Justus Lipsius, to complete our three-part series of courses on Stoicism.
