Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Excerpt From Discourses Of Epictetusthus We Owe To An Accident The Existence Of These Discourses, Which Form One Of The Worlds Vital Books. The Manual Is A Collection Of Aphorisms Taken Substantially From The Larger Work.Epictetus Was Not The Founder Of A New Philosophy. Zeno, The Originator Of The Stoic System, Was His Master, And Zeno Himself Derived His Fundamental Principles From Antisthenes, The Author Of The Cynic School And The Friend Of Socrates.The Greeks Are The Creators Of Philosophy, And Their Earliest Attempt At Systematic Thought Was An Effort To Understand Nature. But They Soon Learned That It Was Necessary To Begin From Within, Since To Know Anything Man Must First Know Himself. Thus The Problem Of The Conduct Of Life Forced Itself Upon Them. This Is The Constant Preoccupation Of Socrates, Who Was Born Five Hundred Years Before Epictetus. He Taught That The Good Is To Be Sought Not In Outward Things, Nor In The Indulgence Of Appetite, But In Virtue, Which For Him, However, Is An Intellectual Rather Than A Moral Habit. His Calm And Rational Temper Led Him To The Belief That Man Always Acts In Accordance With His Knowledge, Does What Insight Shows Him To Be Useful To Himself. He Who Does Evil, Does It From A Mistake Of Judgment. Sin Is Error. Virtue, Then, Being Chiefly Knowledge, May Be Taught, And To Teach It Is The Philosophers Life Work. But Socrates Moved In A Circle From Which There Was No Escape. To Know The Useful Is Virtue. But What Is The Useful? That Which Makes For Virtue.Antisthenes Does Not Attempt To Determine The Meaning Of The Good. He Simply Declares That Virtue Is The Only Good, And, In His View, Virtue Is The Intelligent Conduct Of Life. Right Life Is The Essential Good; Virtue Is Its Own Reward, And One Need Not Look To Its Results. It Is, In The Midst Of Whatever Vicissitudes, A Sure Possession.
