Discourses and Selected Writings

Epictetus, a Greek stoic and freed slave, ran a thriving philosophy school in Nicropolis in the early second century AD. Together with the "Enchiridion", a manual of his main ideas, this book argues that happiness lies in learning to perceive exactly what is in our power to change and what is not.

Epictet, un grec stoic si sclav eliberat, a condus o scoala de filozofie infloritoare in Nicropole la inceputul secolului al II-lea d.Hr.
