Manual de vida

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves and others. They have inspired debate, discord, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives, and they have also destroyed them. Taurus publishes the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and propelled us to be who we are. How can we be happy and free despite the vicissitudes of life? In this masterpiece of Stoic thought, also known as Enchiridion, Epictetus invites us to focus on trying to control only what depends on us and to accept what comes from outside. Based on practical and everyday examples, the book condenses the principles of Stoicism, the philosophical current for the tranquility of the spirit, of which, along with Marcus Aurelius and Seneca, Epictetus is the maximum representative.
