What is a good life? And how can we create that life in a world filled with uncertainty? Beyond Stoicism invites you to find your own answers to these big questions with help from thirteen of the most prominent Greco-Roman philosophers—many of whom inspired, or were inspired by, the Stoics. By taking cues from the lives and ideas of the Cynics, Epicureans, and others, you'll learn to:
- Seek pleasure with Aristippus
- Strike the right balance with Aristotle
- Focus on what's up to you with Epictetus
- Be a rebel like Hipparchia
- Embrace uncertainty with Carneades
- Question everything with Socrates
- Work toward a just society with Plato
- And much more
Times have changed, but the quest for eudaimonia—a life worth living—stays the same: We still seek pleasure and crave love, avoid pain and fear death. That's why all these ancient sages can continue to guide us, practicing Stoics and new seekers alike.
