Description

Exploring the fundamental principles of Epicureanism, this collection presents the key teachings of Epicurus, a philosopher who sought to understand the nature of happiness and the good life.

Epicurus posited that pleasure, in its simplest form, is freedom from pain. He believed that serenity and harmony can be achieved through virtue and living simply. This book provides an insight into his philosophy, as well as two additional works: "Epicureanism" by William De Witt Hyde and a biography of Epicurus by Charles Bradlaugh.

Through these writings, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the enduring ideas that have shaped Western thought on ethics and morality.
