Epictetus describes the need to rationally accept the world around us and live with uncompromising virtue. Seneca provides quick, accessible Stoic wisdom in a series of letters to his friend Lucilius. The philosophers’ combined wisdom shows readers how to live their best lives, staying calm and rational in the face of hardship, remaining true to their own code of ethics, and accepting the world on its own terms.

Epiktet wurde um 55 n. Chr. im Römischen Reich in die Sklaverei geboren. Nach seiner Befreiung gründete er eine einflussreiche Schule der stoischen Philosophie, die betont, dass der Mensch das, was ihm im Leben widerfährt, oft nicht kontrollieren kann, aber seine Reaktionen darauf. Aber genau darin liegt eine nahezu unendliche Kraft, ein erfülltes Leben zu finden. Sharon Lebell hat sich in diesem Buch die Hauptwerke Epiktets, bis heute einer der wichtigsten stoischen Philosophen, vorgenommen und einer Neubearbeitung unterzogen. Es erfolgt nicht nur eine Übertragung von Epiktets »Handbüchlein« in eine moderne und leicht verständliche Sprache, sondern auch eine umfassende Neuinterpretation seiner Lehre, aus der sich vielfältige und ganz praktische Anweisungen ergeben, die für jedermann verständlich und jederzeit anwendbar sind und die in ihrer praktischen Anwendung im Endeffekt fast zwangsläufig zu einem ausgefüllten, glücklichen Leben führen.
