About this ebook
The Enchiridion of Epictetus is one of the principal writings of the stoic school of philosophy, which flourished throughout the Roman and Greek world until the 3rd century AD. The book is more accessible than most philosophical works of the period since it prefers the day-to-day wisdom of the stoic tradition to its less immediate metaphysical elements. The book can be seen as a manual to show the way to achieve mental freedom and happiness, and therefore is essentially a deep version of a self-help book.

Author
Epictetus
Epictetus (circa 55-135 ce) taught in Rome until the year 94 ce, when Emperor Domitian banished philosophers from the city. In exile, he established a school of philosophy where his distinguished students included Marcus Aurelius, author of Meditations. Some 1,863 years after Epictetus's death, Tom Wolfe revived his philosophy in the bestselling novel A Man in Full.
