Una conversación con Epicteto, el antiguo esclavo convertido en maestro.
No sabemos qué te ha llevado a sentir curiosidad por este libro. Tal vez estés pasando por una etapa con un alto nivel de estrés. Quizás sufres una gran saturación de trabajo. O estás empezando a comprender las responsabilidades que conlleva tener un hijo. O puede que estés viviendo una tormenta emocional como consecuencia de una nueva relación fallida. Sea lo que sea, seguro que puedes encontrar las palabras justas dentro de la sabiduría estoica.
El estoicismo es una filosofía práctica cuyo mensaje esencial es: no podemos controlar lo que nos pasa, pero sí cómo respondemos a ello. Cuando nos hacemos preguntas tan corrientes como Qué puedo hacer para controlar mi rabia? , Qué debo hacer si alguien me insulta? , Qué puedo hacer para no sentir temor ante la muerte? , o incluso Cómo debería gestionar los éxitos que obtengo? , lo que en realidad nos estamos preguntando es de qué forma deberíamos vivir nuestra vida para ser más felices. Y no parece una cuestión sencilla de responder...
En Cómo ser un estoico, el filósofo Massimo Pigliucci ofrece el estoicismo, la antigua filosofía que inspiró al gran emperador Marco Aurelio, como el mejor camino para conseguirlo. Mediante una conversación entre el propio Pigliucci y Epicteto, el antiguo esclavo convertido en maestro, y un sinfín de consejos, ejercicios prácticos y propuestas de meditación, este libro se convierte en la guía esencial para vivir la vida según las pautas del estoicismo y encontrar las soluciones que esta filosofía práctica puede aportar a nuestros problemas modernos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONTHE CONTEMPORARY STOICISM LONGSELLER WITH MORE THAN 14,000 RATINGS ON GOODREADS, NOW AVAILABLE IN A HARDCOVER EDITION.
An essential guide to living better. A conversation with Epictetus, the former slave who became a master.
We do not know what has led you to feel curious about this book. You may be going through a period of high stress. Perhaps you are dealing with severe work overload. Or you may be starting to understand the responsibilities that come with having a child. Or you could be facing an emotional storm as the result of a failed relationship. Whatever the case, you are sure to find the right words within Stoic wisdom.
Stoicism is a practical philosophy whose core message is this: we cannot control what happens to us, but we can control how we respond. When we ask everyday questions such as What can I do to control my anger? , What should I do if someone insults me? , How can I avoid fearing death? , or even How should I manage my successes? , what we are really asking is how we should live our lives in order to be happier. And that is no easy question to answer...
In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci presents Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best path forward. Through a dialogue between Pigliucci himself and Epictetus, the former slave turned teacher, along with countless pieces of advice, practical exercises, and meditation practices, this book becomes an essential guide to living according to Stoic principles and finding the solutions this practical philosophy offers for modern life's problems.
