Notes From Your Bookseller Marcus Aurelius, Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher, distills the wisdom of great thinkers before him into a volume that has stood the test of time. The Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (AD 121-180) embodied in his person that deeply cherished ideal figure of antiquity, the philosopher-king. His Meditations, written in moments snatched from military campaigns and the rigors of politics, reveal a mind of exceptional clarity and originality, and a sprit attuned to both the particulars of human destiny and the vast patterns which underlie it.
