Description
The Stoics Reader: Selected Writings and Testimonia gathers together the most important evidence about Stoic thought surviving from the ancient world. This collection consolidates related texts into larger selections, adding material on the skeptical attack on Stoicism and introducing readers to some of the more interesting texts on Stoic ethics from the Roman imperial period.
Translated with clarity and accuracy by Brad Inwood and Lloyd P. Gerson, this volume provides a comprehensive introduction to Stoic philosophy, set within its historical and philosophical context. The book includes a glossary of terms, a glossary of philosophers and philosophical sources, an index of passages translated, and a subject index.
