Summary

La edición de lujo, maravillosamente ilustrada, del bestseller más estoico.

Una invitación a desprendernosde lo incontrolable y tomar las riendas de lo que sí depende de nosotros para convertirnos en «escultores» de nuestros pensamientos, nuestros juicios y nuestros deseos.

Escritas en griego por un emperador romano e intelectual que no tenía intención alguna de publicarlas, estas píldoras de sabiduría práctica, repletas de encanto y expresividad, han sido consultadas y admiradas por estadistas, pensadores y lectores de a pie durante casi dos mil años. Aunque Marco Aurelio los compuso para comprenderse a sí mismo y dar sentido a su vida, estos ejercicios espirituales trascendieron ese fin y se consideran una de las más grandes obras de la historia de la filosofía. Pero, además, esta lectura enormementeplacentera nos ayudará a consolidar nuestra fortaleza interior y a protegernos del desorden de nuestras pasiones y de los peligros de nuestros errores.
 
Edición ilustrada y nueva traducción del griego.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A deluxe, wonderfully illustrated edition of the Stoic bestseller.

An invitation to relinquish what you can’t control and take the reins of what you can, becoming the architect of your own thoughts, decisions and desires.

Written in Greek by a Roman emperor and intellectual for his own edification, these pillars of practical wisdom have been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers and ordinary readers for nearly two millennia. Marcus Aurelius had no intention of publishing his Meditations, but his spiritual exercises have transcended their original purpose and are considered one of history’s greatest works of philosophy. In addition to being enjoyable reading, they are valuable for cultivating inner strength and guarding against disordered passions and the dangers of our ways.
 
An illustrated edition with a new translation from the Greek.

Author Biography

Marco Aurelio (121-181) fue emperador y filósofo romano. En su obra Meditaciones, reflexiona sobre cuestiones morales, inspiradas a su vez en su vida cotidiana. Dividida en doce tomos y escrita en griego, esta obra muestra una visión pesimista del hombre, considerando que sus pasiones son también la fuente de la corrupción del mundo.
